KI's collaboration with The Cell

The Cell is a place where art and science provides a better understanding of the field of life science: what it is today and where it is heading with opportunities and challenges.

Target groups

The aim of The Cell is to reach out broadly in society, not only to those already interested in life science, but also to attract new audiences, for example through collaboration with schools. On weekdays, The Cell is a resource for students and teachers, while weekends and evenings offer interesting talks and creative music and art experiences.

The Cell is also an opportunity for KI's doctoral students and researchers to communicate their research to a wider audience. And to offer interesting and inspiring activities (exhibitions, performances, dialogues/conversations) together with artists and museum educators.

Generate interest and debate

The Cell will:

• Stimulate and promote interest in life sciences and technology.
• Make visible, raise and deepen issues in life science.
• Create an interest in and understanding of new ways of conducting education.
• Create opportunities for several actors to contribute content to provide a place for discussion and debate.
• Contribute to skills supply and skills development in life sciences.
