Description

What does it take to become a scientist? How do scientists begin researching on a question?  What connection can we find between the Nobel Science Prize achievements and daily life? Let’s look at “scientific research” from the perspective of the Nobel Prize.

The exhibition hall provides students with opportunities of deeper scientific learning, regarding not only scientific knowledge, but also the spirit, methods, and attitudes of science. Behind the achievements of each Nobel-level scientist are moving stories. Their character and research spirit are worthy examples for students to learn from.
Through the exhibition layout, visitors can immerse themselves in the academic hall of the Nobel Prize and have a glimpse of the mysteries of science. Through various interactive exhibition units, diversified learning is provided, allowing students to gain inspiration in scientific thinking!

This exhibition hall is suitable for students in the upper grades of elementary school and older, and for general audiences interested in scientific inquiry.

Focus

  • HOPE Device: Exploring Micro Chemical World
    HOPE Device: Exploring Micro Chemical World
    Transparent projection, combined with gesture recognition technology, transforms Taiwan’s first national treasure of science and technology, the Crossed Molecular Beam Apparatus (HOPE), into a non-contact interactive experience. This allows visitors to explore the mysteries of cutting-edge scientific instruments in a whole new way.
  • iPSC Study: Contesting Cell Differentiation
    iPSC Study: Contesting Cell Differentiation
    This section focuses on induced pluripotent stem cell(iPSC) research, which won the 2012 Nobel Prize. It systematically presents knowledge about cells and stem cells. Through interactive methods, visitors can gain in-depth understanding of cell functions, the potential of stem cells and their applications in medicine.
  • Use C-14 for Age Determination
    Use C-14 for Age Determination
    This section centers on “carbon-14 dating,” a revolutionary technique that won the 1960 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. With a half-life of approximately 5,730 years, carbon-14 allows scientists to accurately calculate the age of fossils by carbon-14 in organic materials.
