Our conservator Nanna Gardes is working hard right now to preserve and restore artefacts from our collections for the forthcoming exhibition ‘Obesity — What’s the Problem’ (open on October 4th).

One of the central objects in the exhibit is this ‘bicycle’, which the Danish physiologist, and later Nobel Laureate, August Krogh constructed around 1911 Kondicykel fra ca. 1911. Tilhørende Medicinsk Museions samlinger. Kondicyklen skal bruges i den kommende udstilling: Fedme – Hvad er problemet?, der åbner oktober 2012.
