Lego Workshop

Lego Workshop with biophysicist Prof. Dr. Timo Betz!

Our current special exhibition “Heart & Brain – Understanding Together” showcases cutting-edge microscopy techniques that allow researchers to “look inside” cells and tissues.
In this workshop, biophysicists Prof. Dr. Timo Betz and Dr. Bart Vos will guide participants aged 10 and over to build their own microscope out of Lego bricks and use it to discover the tiniest structures and connections. Participants will learn about the technology behind microscopy and will be able to use their own smartphones to take pictures of magnifications of exciting specimens. Together with the biophysicist, participants can build a complex microscope out of Lego bricks and try out microscopy on different specimens.
The event is aimed at young people aged between 10 and 16.

The workshop is free of charge.
