Over the course of a week, researchers and students from the Master's degree in Neuroengineering at Edmond and Lily Safra International Institute of Neuroscience (IIN-ELS) will be in Science Education Center (CEC) from Macaíba (RN) offering explanations about the digestive system.

With this activity that integrates the work of two units of the Santos Dumont Institute (ISD), students in the Science and Environment workshop at CEC Macaíba can better understand digestion and its processes through videos and virtual reality resources, through an immersive journey into the large intestine.
