Grossology exhibition extended at LDCM
Now on display through January 3, 2010
September 7, 2009
Due to overwhelming popularity, Grossology: The (Impolite) Science of the Human Body will continue its current run into the new year. Grossology will be on display in the Cultural Gallery at Lied Discovery Children's Museum through January 3, 2010.
Grossology, locally sponsored by Cox Communications, is a collaboration between Science World, Advanced Exhibits and Sylvia Branzei, a teacher, microbiologist and author of the best‐selling children's book of the same name. The exhibition uses creative animatronics and interactives to teach about runny noses, body odor and other unmentionables. Visitors get to learn how your nose acts as an air filter and mucus producer, mimic the buildup of acid indigestion at a burp machine, and climb on large replica of human skin, among other exhibit activities.
