Exhibit of preserved bodies

THE UNIVERSE WITHIN is an educational exhibit comprised of actual human bodies and organs that have been preserved using a method known as plastination. THE UNIVERSE WITHIN literally as well as figuratively goes "under the skin,” exposing the complexity of the human body and allowing the general public a look at what normally only doctors and scientists are allowed to see first-hand. The goal of THE UNIVERSE WITHIN is that visitors leave with a deeper understanding of the body’s form and function and a stronger appreciation for staying fit and healthy.
