All are welcome to join Dr Niala for an exploration into dairy, so pivotal in both daily life and scientific research. Her talk will unveil its historical and political significance, while challenging preconceptions about its cultural and scientific dimensions, from biochemistry to environmental impacts. There will be the opportunity to handle traditional milk processing objects offering a hands-on journey into the world of milk.
