This autumn, an intrepid group of Museum scientists are heading to the forests of Sabah in Borneo. Your Key Stage 2–5 students can join them through our programme of video conference events and live chats, and discover what it’s like to perform cutting-edge research in one of the most biologically diverse places on the planet.
