Booktober: Anatomical Oddities with Professor Alice Roberts

Celebrate World Anatomy Day with Professor. Alice Roberts!

Professor Alice Roberts, anatomist, broadcaster and bestselling author takes us on a journey through our bodies - to dig out some fascinating details of anatomy and find out how the naming of body parts provides insights into the history of discovery in human biology. 

Exploring the weirdest and most wonderful parts of ourselves, that we've never even heard of, Alice joins our World Anatomy Day celebrations for a deep dive into the language of anatomy. Join her for a talk about her illustrated book, Anatomical Oddities, followed by a book signing. 

This event is presented as part of Booktober at The Exchange. Running throughout October 2024, the programme celebrates the joy of creative writing and reading in all its forms and will be bursting with activities, events and opportunities to explore the magic of literature.
