What’s in the wonderful box? Discover how fascinating life is through science.

Alicia is a very curious girl. She likes to understand everything. Rainy days are the best to ask questions: How do we know whether a thing is alive? How does a cell work? What does it keep inside? 

Accompany Alicia and her father inside the human body. Let yourself be fascinated by the world of cells, DNA and mitochondria. Nothing seems complicated if you go hand in hand with a good guide.
