Sarah Keer-Keer, Public Engagement, Outreach & Communications Manager at the Wellcome Trust Centre for Cell Biology, presents this year’s Tam Dalyell Prize lecture entitled, "Life Through a Lens". This lecture reveals how taking a dramatic, artistic and fun approach to science helps cell biologists communicate with the public and how in turn the public have inspired the scientists. Join Sarah who will guide you through hundreds of years of science, up to the present day, when we will discover who today's scientists really are. This lecture was part of the 2015 Edinburgh International Science Festival. Recorded on 4 April 2015 at the University of Edinburgh's Playfair Library.
