A team of Biologists from the University of Oxford invite you to join them for an evening of art, science and microbes.

Awareness is growing that microbes influence all aspects of life, yet much of this remains focused on the harm they can cause. Unseen workers: the essential roles of microbes will celebrate the beneficial roles microbes play, from their roles in healthy gut microbiomes to intricate symbioses with plants.

The exhibition will feature microbial inspired artworks from local and international artists, alongside a series of short talks by researchers from the University of Oxford working on different types of beneficial microbes. Register for free tickets.

There will be a cash bar serving alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks throughout the event.
