We all need a little bit of TLC every now and again. In October our Human Remains Conservator Cat Irving will be taking some of the skeletons from our pathology gallery for cleaning and conservation to make sure they continue to look their best. You will be able to come and see these skeletons in our Anatomy Lab, where you will be able to watch Cat at work and talk to her about what is involved in caring for skeletons such as these.
