Demonstration topics include:

Human Health and Anatomy

Learn about the human body systems through hands-on experiences with preserved human specimens including the heart, brain, stomach, lungs, and bones.

Grossology

Think fast: What's the grossest thing you can imagine? Vomit? Snot? Saliva? Are you curious about boogers? What causes B.O.? Want to know more about puke? Then this is the session for you!

Tobacco Awareness

Learn about the dangers and long-term effects of smoking, how to say “no” to pressures to smoke from peers and advertising.

Science Projects

Learn how to perform experiments that teach basic scientific principles. Show your friends – most experiments can be conducted at home.

Health & Exercise

We will be learning about the heart by looking at plastic models and a real (preserved) heart. With more knowledge about our hearts, we will talk about how important is to keep it healthy by eating right and exercising.

Medical Instruments 101

Ever been to the doctor and he/she pulls out those odd tools to examine you? What does a doctor see when he/she looks inside your eyes and ears? Come learn about doctor's tools and a chance for you to use the same tools.
