About This AttractionSuggest an Edit

This fascinating science education centre can be found in the middle of working biomedical research laboratories. Visitors will enter a cell that is suspended over the laboratories so that everyone can see what research scientists are up to and learn all about the human body and up-to-date medical research that is happening. Kids can enjoy the interactive games on offer or peering down a microscope at specimens from the Pathology Museum. They run great family events here so keep an eye on the website for news!
