Yes, STS's very own Dr Chiara Ambrosio, will be giving one of UCL's popular lunchtime lectures.
For centuries, scientists have sought help from artistic practice as a visual aid. This lecture will explore case studies from the 18th to 21st centuries, to show that artists have often participated in the growth of scientific knowledge by questioning concepts that scientists take for granted.
Places are on a first come, first served basis. Please arrive by 1pm to avoid disappoitnement.
