The Wellcome Collection on Euston Road explores the connections between medicine, life and art, drawing on the vast holdings amassed by the pharmaceutical magnate Henry Wellcome. Free galleries display an eclectic mix of medical instruments, anatomical models, artworks and curiosities, from Napoleon's toothbrush to Darwin's walking stick. Thought-provoking temporary exhibitions tackle themes such as the body and the mind. The building also houses a major library and a popular reading room for scientific and cultural reflection.
