Engaging events at the Royal Institution

As a Patron of the Royal Institution of Great Britain (Ri), I have the privilege of inviting a few fellow science enthusiasts to a lecture or discourse from its public programme. Leading scientists deliver the lectures in the Ri's grade 1 listed lecture theatre, where Michael Faraday - and others - announced their discoveries to the world. Here (below) is a list of the events I'm planning to attend in the near future. If you're interested in joining me, please let me know (info@alexoria.co.uk) and I'll see what I can do to arrange a ticket for you. It would be great to see you there!
