Through interactive manipulations, scientific explanations, anecdotes and meetings with researchers, you are invited to dive into the heart of the matter by discovering the CEMES and its ultra-performing microscopes.

This exhibition was conceived on the occasion of the “Fête de la science” and its special operation around microscopy by Science Animation in partnership with the CEMES.
