Evening Consultation: What Animals Can Teach Us is an event held at the Medical Museion in Copenhagen, Denmark. The Museion hosts these evening sessions as part of its programme, and this edition takes as its subject what animals can teach people about the body, health and medicine.
What to expect
The session is built around a single question: what can the study of animals reveal about our own bodies and our own health? It suits visitors who enjoy thinking about medicine from an unexpected angle, and it is a natural fit for anyone already interested in the history and ideas that the Medical Museion explores.
- Where: the Medical Museion, Copenhagen
- Date: 4 November
- Format: an evening session, classed as a conference-style event
Making the most of a visit
Because the event takes place in the evening, it works well as a stop after a day spent exploring the city. Copenhagen is compact and easy to walk, and the museum's setting gives you a chance to combine the talk with a wider look at the city's cultural life. The Medical Museion is also a useful place to visit for its own sake if you arrive early or stay on afterwards.
If the subject appeals to you, it is worth checking the museum's own information before you go for the exact timing and any practical details, as these are not set out here.
