[Nhcoll-l] Fluid preservation course

[Simon Moore]

The fluid preservation course is due to take place at the Horniman Museum, 100 London Rd, Forest Hill, London, SE23 3PQ, UK from the 1st to 4th of June 2015 and there are currently 5 places left. 

The course will take the usual four day format and the cost is £300 for the four days and will cover all aspects of fluid preservation and conservation of fluid-preserved specimens. The course is continually being updated and the theoretical part of day 3 now covers some preservation aspects relating to DNA.

The course comprises PowerPoint presentations each day for about 1 hour and the rest of each day is devoted entirely to practical work.

Members of NatSCA may apply for bursaries to help cover costs.

Please reply to Simon Moore: couteaufin at btinternet.com also advising him of any personal allergies that you may have and also request a schedule and/or pro forma invoice if you require one in advance.

Full handouts (including risk assessments) are included in the cost and accommodation can be sought in the local area.

With all good wishes, Simon.
