Discover the hidden dimensions of the world through the lens of a microscope
In short: BBC One Show scientist Marty Jopson reveals a realm invisible to the naked eye. This demonstration journeys from the familiar objects of everyday life into a microscopic world of bacteria, plants, and highly magnified insects.
In this Royal Institution talk, filmed on 13 October 2018, Marty Jopson explores the evolution of microscopy. He moves from the earliest methods of viewing the small to modern, live demonstrations of advanced fluorescent techniques.
Jopson, a science presenter with over twenty years of experience in television and live performance, uses images and live demonstrations to bridge the gap between the visible world and the microscopic wonders that exist just beyond our sight.
