19.03.2025: Markus Dams

On 19 March 2026 at 18:30, the LIB invites you to a special evening as part of the "Untold Stories" series. Markus Dams, Technical Assistant in Herpetology at the Museum der Natur Hamburg, will guide you through the lecture, collection and provide interactive insights with humour and expertise.

It starts with an informal illustrated talk, followed by a guided tour of the collection - from the two-headed adder to the alligator penis. The focus is on snakes, which can even be touched and held. A short quiz provides additional fun - just one correct answer is enough to win a beer!

We also explore the technology in the museum - some of it highly complicated, but explained in an exciting and clear way by Markus Dams. The evening ends in a cosy atmosphere in the office with the quiz prize-giving.

Come along and experience science in a different way: surprising, funny and with unusual insights into the LIB collection.
