Our lifestyle leaves its mark on our bodies. What we eat, how active we are, and the environmental factors we are exposed to all influence our health. But how do these experiences affect our cells, and how can they influence the way our genes work? Epigenetics plays a key role in this. Epigenetic mechanisms help cells respond to environmental signals. Join scientists from the Epigenetics Community at Helmholtz Munich for a discussion at the pop-up exhibition. An exciting format that brings science to life for everyone.
You can experience stations featuring posters, microscopes, games, temporary tattoos and models. The event is aimed at young and old alike – the focus is on dialogue with the scientists.
