Forensic Science: A bog body mystery

To celebrate International Women’s Day and the Manchester Wonder Women season of events, take part in a hands-on practical science workshop with The University of Manchester Biomolecular Archaeologist, Konstantina Drosou. Konstantina will describe her current research, which involves extracting and analysing ancient human DNA. The workshop will explore the real-life applications of this research and will give you the opportunity to use our scientific equipment in The Lab at Manchester Museum. By analysing the available clues and completing a scientific practical, you can take on the role of a forensic expert to solve the mystery of some unknown human remains.
