CELLWORLDS

No need to go to the ends of the earth,
Let's start by going to the heart of ourselves
#HiddenBiodiversity

An exploration mission through our own cells, Cell Worlds brings together an immersive exhibition, an introspective documentary, a live musical performance and a cinema experience.

The initial idea is to bring images of biological research as far away from the laboratories as possible and closer to the general public.

By choosing to amaze in order to raise awareness , by using emotions, music, introspective narration or even the codes of animal documentaries, Cell Worlds allows us to redefine the Living .

Cells, bacteria, viruses, cancers, embryos... We can take a different look at these unknowns, lodged in each and every one of us.

Cell Worlds is also aimed at scientists. Beyond its function of opening up science, the project helps to demystify the profession of researcher and to promote research work .

The project is a scientific, educational and artistic world first, showcasing microscopic living things in proportions never before attempted.

It is also one of the largest showcases of scientific research, bringing together more than 50 research teams from institutes from from 10 different countries (France, United States, United Kingdom, Switzerland, Spain, Portugal, Sweden, Japan, Australia, Austria)
