Explore amazing science research looking to understand how our universe works, and how to make the world a better place! Join us to explore STEM with a range of interactive activities from King’s College London! You’ll get hands-on exploring science, and even get to take home some of your creations!
You will also have the chance to read about the exciting research our scientists are working on, and explore how you think science should be used to shape our future.
Discover how researchers at King’s College London’s College are building the Hospital of the Future with medical imaging and 3D printing. See how they are creating and using imaging technology such as nuclear medicine and full body scanning to see the unseen inside you.
Our creative and interactive activities will help you learn how radioactivity exists around us and how we can use it to take better images of our bodies. Find out how using full body scans can help us unlock the secrets of the body. Get a closer look at what’s inside your body with 3D printed models of the heart, brain and more!
You can also try your luck at our life sciences pinball machine and myth-busting game, showcased by WeRise as part of our commitment to working with our local communities.
The School of Biomedical Engineering and Medical Sciences is based at King’s College London, where we are engineering better health for the world.
The Centre for Translational Medicine supports and funds research to bring (or ‘translate’) knowledge and information discovered within research projects into healthcare to provide effective treatments. The centre aims to address major health burdens including health inequalities, by combining clinical and academic expertise and developing future clinical academic leaders.
At Lambeth Country Show, we will demonstrate some of the tools and methods used within research that help to find answers to questions that come up about our health.
The Genetics Society was founded in 1919 as the world’s first society devoted to the study of the mechanisms of inheritance. The Society is dedicated to promoting research, training, teaching and public engagement in all areas of Genetics.
Join scientists to explore DNA with a range of hand-on activities, from surpising tastes to making your own DNA designs.
Centre of the Cell is a unique informal science learning centre, based at the Whitechapel campus of Queen Mary University of London, and the first of its kind to be located within working a biomedical research laboratory.
Explore your ‘Superhero Cells’ and learn all about the tiny cells that make up your body, before designing and building your own ew type of cell with a special job to do in the body. You can also look at samples of real cells under a microscope, and see how cells that come from different places and do different jobs contain various structures.
Queen Mary University of London is a world-leading research-intensive university with over 32,000 students representing more than 170 nationalities. A member of the prestigious Russell Group, we work across the humanities and social sciences, medicine and dentistry, and science and engineering, with inspirational teaching directly informed by our research. Queen Mary’s history dates back to 1785, with the foundation of the London Hospital Medical College. Our history also encompasses the establishment of the People’s Palace in 1887, which brought accessible education, culture and recreation to the East End of London. We also have roots in Westfield College, one of the first colleges to provide higher education to women.
Join researchers from QMUL at this year’s Lambeth Country Show for fun, hands-on activities exploring some of our latest scientific research – including discovering the properties of space and time through cookie decorating!
The UK Dementia Research Institute (UK DRI) is a globally leading multidisciplinary research institute principally funded by the Medical Research Council (MRC). The UK DRI is dedicated to changing the outlook for people living with or at risk of neurodegenerative conditions, including Alzheimer’s, frontotemporal dementia, Huntington’s, Lewy body dementia, motor neuron disease, Parkinson’s, vascular dementia, and more. Its community of over 1000 researchers across eight world-class research centres are accelerating the discovery, development and delivery of interventions that will help diagnose, treat, and ultimately prevent neurodegeneration.
Established in 2017, the multi-million-pound Institute is nationally hosted across six leading UK universities: UCL, University of Cambridge, Cardiff University, University of Edinburgh, Imperial College London, and King’s College London. The institute is funded by the MRC, Alzheimer’s Society, Alzheimer’s Research UK, LifeArc, British Heart Foundation, NIHR and Parkinson’s UK.
Founded in 1788, the Linnean Society is the oldest learned society dedicated to the science of natural history. Named after the founder of classification, Carl Linnaeus, the Linnean Society has long been involved in investigating and understanding the natural world around us.
From our venue in Burlington House, Piccadilly, we run school workshops, family engagement days, tours and all kinds of activities! Join us at the Lambeth Country show to investigate some of our scientific specimens, learn more about what we do and design your own creature!
The Royal Astronomical Society (RAS), founded in 1820, encourages and promotes the study of astronomy, solar-system science, geophysics and closely related branches of science. It represents UK astronomy nationally and internationally, and supports a wide range of education programmes across the UK.
Serco provide a diverse range of sustainable waste management services to residents in Lambeth. Staff will be on hand to answer any questions you have. They will also be showcasing their fully upcycled and 100% electric waste disposal truck, which is one of the many actions being taken to reduce their and Lambeth’s carbon footprint.
