Shape Matters: Unlocking the Mysteries of Cell Deformation

Did you know that during the different phases of a cell’s life, the cell changes its shape? Scientists study cell deformation of healthy and diseased cells to learn more about our bodies. To do that, they use high-tech instruments on a tiny scale. Join us to see a prototype of such an instrument and use it to deform our cell-like balloons. Get yourself ready for a memory game about the cell deformation process.
Start 17:00 o'clock

Did you know that during the different phases of a cell’s life, the cell changes its shape? Scientists study cell deformation of healthy and diseased cells to learn more about our bodies. To do that, they use high-tech instruments on a tiny scale. Join us to see a prototype of such an instrument and use it to deform our cell-like balloons. Get yourself ready for a memory game. Can you figure out which processes change the shape of a cell, and more importantly, can you match the processes to deformations?
