Miranda Lowe is a British museum curator. She is principal curator of crustacea at the Natural History Museum, London and a founder member of Museum Detox.[1]
She has particular expertise in peracarida and coral taxonomy, and she manages the museum's collections in crustacea and cnidaria.[1]
She is a committee member of NatSCA, the Natural Sciences Collections Association.[2]
In 2018 Lowe and Subhadra Das of the Grant Museum of Zoology and Comparative Anatomy co-authored "Nature Read in Black and White: decolonial approaches to interpreting natural history collections",[3] described by the Linnean Society's head of collections as "eye-opening".[4] They went on to be founding members of Museum Detox, an organisation bringing together BAME museum workers in the UK.[5][6]
In September 2020 she appeared on BBC Radio 4's The Museum of Curiosity, when her hypothetical donation to this imaginary museum was a jellyfish.[7]
