The exhibition “Poisons, instructions for use” will be on display from October 25th 2013 to May 31st 2014 at the Science Museum, Crivelli Hall, Polo Museale of Camerino University. According to Paracelsus, “the right dose differentiates a poison and a remedy”. So the exhibition presents a sensorial and scientific journey not only through poisons and venoms from plants and animals: are also proposed natural drugs which crossed our history, culture, science and tradition. Display panels, living animals, herbarium specimens, antique books and multimedia will guide public through the exhibition. Lectures, workshops, theatre performances and educational events for children will be organized to involve public on weekends during the whole period.
