Tour information
Inside DNA was developed by At-Bristol on behalf of ASDC, with funding from the Wellcome Trust and support from the Sanger Institute.
At-Bristol and ASDC are now planning the tour and are offering Inside DNA to host venues in the UK for approximately six months each until 2013.
Venues will have the opportunity to host this innovative and ground-breaking exhibition free of charge. In return, these partner venues will be asked to contribute to the evaluation of the Inside DNA project, helping ASDC and At-Bristol to learn more about how users are interacting with the exhibition and participating in the formal and informal programmes. Partner venues will receive full support including a programming pack, staff training and a marketing and media pack
