Goat’s milk that can produce bulletproof materials, mosquitos resistant to malaria and barley that grows shorter to stop getting damaged in the wind all form part of a new exhibition at Dundee University.
Entitled “That Was Then. This Is Now”, it opens today in the Science Art Research Gallery and focuses on a range of genetically modified organisms, some of which have come from the Centre for Post Natural History in Pittsburgh.
The centre’s founder, Richard Pell, has also made the trip to Dundee and will talk about the exhibits at the D’Arcy Thompson Zoology Museum on Friday.
The exhibition opens with a reception and curators’ tour this evening at 5pm and will then be open on Saturdays, from 11am to 5pm, until September 10.
