Did you know that billions of your body’s cells die EVERY DAY? And that your body creates billions of new cells each day in replacement? As a result, the human body is fully replaced every TEN YEARS! Join us for this CELL-tastic session and build model cells with clay with CAGIS Graduate and biologist, Pallavi! Simulate unique processes like kleptoplasty, where cells acquire organelles from other cells! No cellular memory (or pre-existing knowledge) required 😉
