Hi, I'm Shan-Hua, a Museum Studies student @uniofleicester. Working with the curator of Marine #Mollusca at the #NaturalHistoryMuseum, I'm cataloguing shell specimens. This process has deepened my understanding of working with collections and opened new career possibilities.

Hi, I'm Min-Chen, a postgrad in Art Museum & Gallery Studies @uniofleicester. On placement at the museum, I'm archiving some of the #Mollusca collections and reviewing classifications. This work has expanded my biology knowledge and opened career opportunities in museum research!
