The 2009 Summer Science Exhibition

The 2009 Royal Society Summer Science Exhibition is now over - but you can still enjoy the exhibition online.

We’ve got over 20 fascinating, diverse and interactive exhibits. Fields of study range from how fluorescent fish could provide better understanding of human diseases, to a chewing robot that can help us develop dental technology, to how new space missions could help to unlock the history of the universe.

One of the unique features of the exhibition is the opportunity to grill the scientists involved in the research. You can browse their blogs, or listen to some of the exhibitors' audio introductions.

We also provided art and history of science exhibits and several extras, including lunchtime talks, an interactive presentation, and Saturday family workshops.

You can listen to the week's talks online and see photos of the exhibition.
