Events

Tours | These are one of the most popular events during MSD. We will have an array of tours throughout the day. Join one and get a glimpse behind-the-scenes at how the science happens at Hatfield. Note: These are walking tours, often over uneven ground, and take approximately one hour. Because our tours are very popular, we ask guests to sign up for a single tour.
