It proposes thematic exhibitions and contributes in a dynamic and inventive way to the comprehension of scientific and medical innovations in order to trigger citizen debates. The themes are always positioned at the crossroads of sciences, medicine, biotechnologies, history, arts and society.
In addition to the exhibitions, an intensive program of activities, encounters and debates on current scientific and cultural themes is proposed on a regular basis. These are addressed to the younger audience and schools as well as adults.
