Laboratório Cavendish

Os Laboratórios Cavendish pertencem ao departamento de física da Universidade de Cambridge. Fazem parte da escola de Ciências Físicas e foram construídos em 1873 como laboratórios de formação de estudantes. No início os laboratórios estavam instalados no centro de Cambridge, porém, por falta de espaço foram deslocados na década de 70 para a zona ocidental de Cambridge.

O departamento recebeu seu nome de Henry Cavendish, um famoso cientista e membro de um ramo da família Cavendish relacionada com os duques de Devonshire. Um dos membros desta família, William Cavendish, 7º Duque de Devonshire, foi reitor da Universidade e, deu o nome do seu parente ao laboratório depois de o fundar e doar fundos para a sua construção, tendo ainda nomeado a James Maxwell como primeiro director.

Até agora 28 cientistas dos Laboratórios Cavendish já foram laureados com prêmio Nobel.

Os Laboratórios Cavendish tem tido uma importante influência no desenvolvimento da Biologia, sobretudo, graças a aplicação da cristalografia de raios X no estudo das estruturas da biomoléculas como, por exemplo, o DNA.

Outras áreas nas quais os laboratórios tem sido influentes desde 1950 são as seguintes:
