At a time when taking care of ourselves and those around us is becoming a priority, we could find out more about healthy lifestyles and innovative research in the medical field.

A well-structured tour that will take you on a discovery of the human body, through a guided tour available in Italian, English and Chinese. With the competent guidance of experts and university researchers. An installation that combines past and present, in fact at Città della Scienza we will find both archaeological finds that will tell us about medicine in the past and useful objects and devices in the medical field printed in 3D, such as a neonatal incubator.

Mission Antarctica (Missione Antartide): An exhibition dedicated to the celebration of 35 years of the National Research Programme in Antarctica (PNRA), installations that will let you discover all the biodiversity of the frozen continent. Through the discoveries of the Programme. The guided tour will tell the story of the geography at the beginning, from its formation to its evolution. The exhibition will also include a reproduction of a polar remote camp, an installation that will help you to understand the life led by the participants in the polar expedition.
