Come and hear Dr Lori Jones discuss how her research on plague led her to a unique discovery in our collections. We’ll look at how finding plague in a single Wellcome manuscript has evolved into an entirely new research project about the personalisation of medical knowledge in the past. Following her paper, there will be an opportunity for you to discuss her ideas.
We’ll be in the Viewing Room. It’s next to the Library entrance on level 2, which you can reach by taking the lift or the stairs.
Spaces are limited and may run out if we are busy so you may wish to arrive early.
