TICKET MUST BE BOUGHT DIRECTLY FROM THE PINT OF SCIENCE WEBSITE -

Planet Earth: Through Microscope is part of the annual Pint of Science festival, which brings active researchers into pubs and cafés to share their work in a relaxed, informal setting. The festival runs across the UK with themed events, including this one, which zooms in on the microscopic organisms that quietly shape our planet.

This evening focuses on the tiny but mighty players dominating Earth’s hidden niches—worms, archaea and bacteria—and the surprising ways they influence our environment. The session explores how these organisms survive in extreme conditions, how they drive essential ecological processes, and how their unique abilities could offer sustainable alternatives for tackling plant disease and other environmental challenges.
