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!

Help us organize our website content.

The file comprises:

tabular data (e.g. "Fractional coordinates for polyglycine II") and calculations (holograph);

Please note that a number of degrading cellulose acetate paper items cannot be consulted for conservation reasons, and have been stored separately as file PP/CRI/H/41/2A. These items are being digitised as part of the Wellcome Digital Library, and will be made accessible to readers online in due course.
