How to survive parasites and insects

23 July 2019 20:00 - 21:30

Location: The Royal Institution, Albemarle St, London, W1S 4BS

Event description

We'd like to invite you to a skin-crawling talk featuring demonstrations, interactive activities, and a live dissection. The talk will be delivered by Prof James Logan as he reveals the lives of the bugs we may encounter, the science behind the control of the diseases they transmit, and the truth about how to stay safe when on holiday.

There are 6 million parasite species on the planet and 9 million insect species. As we explore more exotic holiday destinations, one thing is inevitable, we are going to encounter them - the good, the bad and the ugly.
