The Cluster of Excellence CECAD at the University of Cologne took part in the event entitled “Research for Our Health” aboard the exhibition ship “MS Wissenschaft”. From 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. on 24th and 25th August the floating science center opened her hatches in the historic city center of Cologne, offering visitors fascinating glimpses into the mysteries of the human body.
The interactive exhibit “Keep the worms alive!” aroused visitor curiosity in a playful way and gave the curious exciting insights into the workings of the body: Besides a cool animated trailer on the theme of metabolism and “Talking Heads” – short video statements by five leading CECAD scientists - CECAD also had an interactive game to offer: Under the slogan “Keep the worms alive!” visitors were invited to take part in an exciting experiment as ‘managers’ of metabolism. A short animation clip geared to a young audience gave them the crucial tips they needed to succeed.
