Description

The exhibition transforms the story of “Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland” into a metaphorical dreamlike adventure. The characters from the story, such as Alice, the White Rabbit, the Cheshire Cat, the Queen of Hearts, and the playing card soldiers, are reimagined as representations of various exhibits. Through cross-disciplinary  integration of design, technology, and medicine, the exhibition aims to convey health knowledge and promote healthy  behaviors.

The journey begins with”Questioning,” the first step of learning,  encouraging visitors to think and observe themselves. Through engaging interactive installations, visitors can understand their bodies and explore the nature of diseases. Besides the discussion of the top ten causes of death, the section “People and Diseases” also addresses various syndromes closely related to modern life.

In the “People and Medical Care” section, the exhibition reviews and envisions the development of Taiwan’s medical care, showcasing how technology is transforming healthcare by measures like mobile medicine, electronic medical records, and remote care. Visitors can experience future smart medicine models through exhibits and interactive installations.

Finally, visitors can practice the guidelines in “People and Health” through activities. In the Health Micro-movie Theater, they can create personalized souvenirs and share their visits on social media.

Follow Alice’s footsteps and embark on a journey of health exploration!

This exhibition is suitable for the general public, elementary and middle school students, and visitors interested in health promotion and precision health.
