Throughout the whole day of Science 4 All, it will be possible to listen to short presentations on curiosities related to the exhibits and collections. These presentations are scheduled every half-hour in the halls, which will come to life thanks to the presence of the museum conservators, the scientific ferents and some university lecturers. The presentations last for 5 minutes and will generally animate the tour. They will take place no less than 10 different locations as listed below.<\/p>\n
