Francis Crick Institute

The Crick Institute undertakes scientific research about health and disease. It's the largest biomedical (relating to both biology and medicine) research institute in Europe. It's a working building and while its laboratories are not open to the public, there are public areas where fascinating exhibitions and regular events are held. It's engaging and similar in style to what is on offer at the Wellcome Collection. It's housed in a very striking contemporary step free building, which is impressive and well worth visiting for the architecture alone.
