Science in Oxford has come a long way.

Some of the liveliest scientific debates took place in this city: think Darwinists v. Creationists in the beautiful iron and glass setting of the Natural History Museum.Today the city is a major player in the field of medicine and technology. Penicillin, the first antibiotic, was developed here, and more recently, one of the first covid vaccines. Have fun learning about the insiders’ stories behind Oxford's scientific exploits.
