Does the scientific method have limits, or can it elucidate every possible question?

These include the origin of the universe, its purpose, the activities within it, its comprehensibility, and its destiny. The talk is based on Peter's recent book: On Being: A scientist examines the great questions of existence. The event is free but seating limited so advance booking is recomended To book seats, please use http://wmprestigelecture.eventbrite.com/

Adult groups

Thinktank has some great offers for groups of adults. Groups of 10 people or more are eligible for our discounted entry rate and we also offer discounts for concessions (students, OAPs etc)

Visiting groups can take part in fun science activities, from hands-on workshops like our DNA purification in the Lab, to reminiscence sessions with some of our handling collections. It is the perfect destination for corporate teambuilding or a fun family day out.
