It is what we are made of. It is our secret code. We are programmed by it. It is our inside information. It is a whole world of living.
It is the world of DNA

The Spice of Life

It has been a lengthy journey of exploration from the days when it was believed that mice sprang naturally from wheat, under the theory of "spontaneous generation", to the days of the DNA research and breakthrough. Once again, nature is discovered at its ingenious. DNA is a macromolecule present in the cells of all living beings. It is a cornerstone, creating a specific identity for the individual. The exhibition highlights the contribution of scientists to the discovery of the secret of life, DNA, through interactive exhibits, allowing visitors to explore the role of genes in an individual’s DNA.

Larger than Life
