The Royal Institution Christmas Lectures 2009
What are the Royal Institution Christmas Lectures? The Royal Institution Christmas Lectures are the biggest events; demonstration-packed, fun-filled science events for young people. They are broadcast on UK television every Christmas and have formed part of the Christmas tradition for generations. In this years Royal Institution Christmas Lectures ecologist Professor Sue Hartley – only the fourth woman to present the lectures since they began in 1825 – shows how the epic 300-million-year war between plants and animals has shaped us and the world we live in.
