Science on Sundays

Fatty fruits and feathered friends: how novel fruit colours communicate with animals

Dr Miranda Sinnott-Armstrong, Department of Chemistry, University of Cambridge

This talk will explore the diversity of fruit colouration and, in particular, how novel and unusual colours evolve and what information coloured fruits convey to animal dispersers.

We will be running these talks as online webinars for those at home, and also screening the talks live from the Botanic Garden Classroom for those visiting the Garden on the day.

Suitable for adults and children aged 12+

Talks are free, normal Garden admission applies.
