## About

Eli Lilly and Company Visiting Scientist Dr. Ann Taylor leads hands-on experiments at The Children's Museum of Indianapolis, using fluorescence to show how proteins fold and unfold themselves. Sessions take place in the Corteva Agriscience STEMLab inside the Corteva Agriscience ScienceWorks gallery and are aimed at ages 6 and up and their families. The program is included with museum admission, with no separate registration, and the museum notes the space has quiet areas and a tactile opportunity. On October 25 sessions run at 11:15 a.m. and 1:45 p.m.; on December 6 they run at 1:45 p.m. and 3 p.m. The museum says times can change, so check the day's calendar before you go.
