La Jolla Institute for Immunology

We will explore how the body develops immunity with antibodies. Visitors will cut out paper antibodies to connect them to COVID-19 and vaccines and build a virus model to learn about virus structure. They can take home their crafts. We will also show a sealed petri dish with GFP-expressing bacteria. Using a UV flashlight, visitors will see it glow and learn how GFP is used in immunology research.
