Great to see that History of Life, the popular winner of the 2019 MEDEA Awards was shown recently at NUI Galway’s Virtual Summer Arts Festival. The festival which took place from 26 to 29 August featured various films from different departments in the university. Since 2011, final year undergraduate science students at NUI Galway taking the class module History of Life have worked in small groups to produce short documentary-style films on any aspect of evolution they choose – History of Life is the excellent result!
