Our galleries are quietest on weekdays and weekend mornings. At busy times, particularly on Saturdays, you may need to queue for our temporary exhibitions.

We’re undertaking some research with website visitors to learn more about how people find access-related information provided by museums. This survey shouldn't take longer than 10 minutes to complete. Thank you for your time!

<p>An eye of a four day-old zebrafish embryo with the lens red from a reporter transgene inserted using the gene editing tool Crispr/Cas9. The transgene is also expressed in the cells of developing neuromasts. Sensory neuromast cells of the zebrafish lateral line and ear detect vibrations in the water. Immunolabelling for acetylated tubulin (cyan) marks the neuronal tracts. <p>Confocal micrograph. Width of image is 500 micrometres.</p>
