CeMi at the Glasgow Science Festival

,

Over the weekend, the Centre for the Cellular Microenvironment (CeMi) brought science to life for young minds at the Glasgow Science Festival with our interactive activity: “Building Life: From Cells to Medicines.”

Our activities were all about learning through play.  Children (and plenty of adults!) got involved in:

  • Building their own cells using play-doh
  • Feeling different tissue textures
  • Testing soft, squishy hydrogels

These fun, tactile experiences helped introduce big ideas—like how cells respond to their environment—in ways that were easy to understand and exciting to explore.

A big thank you to our CeMi volunteers, whose enthusiasm and creativity made the stand so engaging.
