Visitors will explore how scientists design and use smart materials to study life at the microscale and advance personalized medicine. Hands-on experiments will show how to create hydrogels that mimic human tissues, synthesize fluorescent nano- and microparticles sensors in real time, and visualize cells through optical microscopes. Interactive games and puzzles will engage participants of all ages, bringing complex concepts like pH, oxygen, cell behavior, and light–matter interaction to life in a fun and accessible way. 

Visitors will also discover flagship projects, ERC-PoC HySense, ERC-StG INTERCELLMED, AIRC MFAG, TecnoMed Puglia, PNRR-PNC Fit4MedRob, and FSC 2014-2020 (T4-AN-01), addressing today’s major scientific and medical challenges.
