Family Workshop „Building Blocks of Life“
Workshop for Children Ages 7 – 10
Why do trees look so different from bacteria? Why do fish live in water and insects on land? Living beings have had many millions of years to adapt to the most diverse habitats. Although living beings look very different, they all have something in common – an internal „instruction manual“ made of DNA. The workshop will introduce you to the topics of evolution and genetics. Through games and experiments, you will learn how all living beings are related and how to see the DNA of strawberries.
At the VISTA Science Experience Center, you'll gain fascinating insights into the world of research at the Institute of Science and Technology Austria (ISTA) and learn more about the ideas, people, and often surprising processes behind science.
The free workshop is suitable for children between 7-10 years old and requires the presence of an adult chaperone. Registration is required!
