Discover mind-blowing, groundbreaking science on the third floor! In LSC’s new Making Mammoths exhibit, explore the effort to bring back mammoths, led by Harvard geneticist George Church, a recipient of LSC’s Genius Award.

At the center of the exhibit is a woolly mammoth replica, six months in the making with each crafted hair individually positioned. Learn about the CRISPR gene-editing technology that Church is using in efforts to transform modern Asian elephants—which are going extinct—into cold-loving “mammophants,” an effort that, theoretically, could help reduce global warming.
