Sponsored by #Babots (babots.eu), we will share how we make worms glow, and I'll talk about understanding better how worms 'compute' when they have to make decisions.

Our colleagues also have prepared stations for kids and adults of all ages!

Busy prep today for the open house @mpinb.mpg.de tomorrow! The 🪱 station is ready!
Discover how a fluorescence microscope works, pick some (gummi) worms, and play with an entire worm brain!
Plus we have a selfie-station to step into the shoes/coat of a scientist! #worms
