After a year of slumber The Laborastory is back to tell the stories of science – the heroes, the egos, the breakthroughs and the mistakes of genius. From lonely laboratories, science and scientists quite literally take centre stage.

Join us on Tuesday 10 March to hear five scientists from different fields tell the remarkable stories of the heroes of their field. Each story is just ten short minutes. They will tell the tales of the tragedies and triumphs of the men and women who made science their passion, and left legacies of groundbreaking discoveries that inspire the scientists of today.
