Ninewells Hospital: Care, Community and Innovation

A celebration of medical and design innovation in the heart of Dundee and Tayside 

Dundee has long been home to medical innovation significantly impacting each of our lives – throughout the time of Ninewells Hospital and predating it. Pioneering in areas such as IVF, keyhole surgery and the building design itself, this exhibition showcases the city as a place of medical advancement.

The exhibition features key moments from the last 50 years, including the Ninewells Cancer Campaign and the opening of Maggie’s Centre in the hospital grounds, alongside contemporary stories with a focus on responsive design and adaptation which came into force during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Previous exhibition: Open from 3 May – 14 September 2025
