Enhance your Genome DIY presentation experience with touchscreen interactives from the Genome: Unlocking Life’s Code exhibition. Explore human genomic migration, the great scientific strides in understanding our genomes, and what areas of our lives are affected by genomic research. Your DIY visitors can have a supplementary dive into some genomic topics beyond the graphic exhibit panels.

Featured Interactives
