Price: £2 (Free for members)
‘From Dark Satanic Mills to DNA’ tells the story of the men and women who, whilst working in Leeds played a crucial role in one of the biggest milestones in science – our understanding of DNA.
Description
Thanks to a legendary performance by Sir Ian Botham in 1981 and, more recently, a nail-biting final over in the 3rd Test of the 2019 Ashes, Headingley is famous for sporting heroes. But it has also been the home of scientific heroes too. ‘From Dark Satanic Mills to DNA’ tells the story of the men and women who, whilst working in Leeds played a crucial role in one of the biggest milestones in science – our understanding of DNA, the genetic material – and in so doing, earned the city two Nobel prizes.
