description:
To celebrate Museums at Night we throw open the doors of our archives and mark the 150th anniversary of a man who fought the College of Surgeons every step of the way! Talks, activities and archival displays will look at the life of Thomas Wakley, surgeon, Lancet founder and editor and medical crusader. You can also discover some of the stranger things that the college has acquired, try your hand at surgical ‘top trumps’ and take the opportunity to research a surgical ancestor.
Free, drop-in event but on-the night registration will be required for individual activities.
