"In everything there is Science" is the first exhibition of the Science Museum of the University of Navarra. The exhibition will take more than a hundred specimens from the Museum to seven buildings on campus, where the pieces will remain on display -openly and with free access- until February 15, 2019.

Its inauguration took place at the Faculty of Communication, in an event that included an exhibition of birds by Tierra Rapaz. The event was part of the activities of the Science and Technology Weeks 2018.

"In everything there is Science" proposes a dialogue between Science and other disciplines taught in different faculties. Through ideas developed by several professors and researchers, each building hosts a display of specimens of mammals, minerals and fossils, insects and sheets from the Museum's Herbarium, along with panels that invite reflection on science and its relationship with other branches of knowledge.

In the case of the Museum of Art, the exhibition will focus on the nexus between Science and Art; in the Central building the exhibition will revolve around Science and Letters; the Humanities Library will address the relationship between Science and Philosophy; Architecture will deal with the theme of the building as a living organism (Science and Architecture); the Friends building will analyze sustainable economic growth (Science and Economics); the Faculty of Communication will focus on the peculiarities of communication in the animal world (Science and Communication); and the Science building (Hexagon) will close the exhibition with a panel on the process by which species are named.

Science Museum: University H2020 Project

"With this exhibition we seek to take a little piece of the Science Museum to other parts of the campus and to approach it from a point of view that is closer to the visitors of that space (professors, students, etc.)," says the head of Collections, David Galicia.

"Thus," he continues, "we have decided to carry out a project with a much earlier historical background, but about which we have detected that the rest of the university community does not have sufficient knowledge. That is why we have decided to take part of the Museum to the buildings on the rest of the campus and to do so by establishing a dialogue with the disciplines taught there," emphasizes the professor from the Department of Environmental Biology.

The Science Museum -which conserves more than 25 million specimens of 10,000 different species distributed in 11 collections and one million museum records- is one of the backbone projects of the Horizon 2020 strategy of the University of Navarra in the area of Social Responsibility and Environmental Sustainability.
