The virtual museum “The Origins of Life,” a treasure trove of answers to fundamental questions...

A professor at the University of Poitiers, Prof. Abderrazak El Albani, has developed France’s first virtual science museum dedicated to understanding the origins of life.

Geosciences professor Abderrazak El Albani and his team at the University of Poitiers have created the first virtual museum that offers a comprehensive look at the origins of life and the latest discoveries in this field.

Following research in Gabon, this scientist discovered, among other things, that multicellular life emerged over two billion years ago.

A unique and fully interactive experience to understand our history.

The tour consists, much like a traditional museum, of various rooms.

Visitors can explore the fossil room, the expedition room, and the evolution room.

A place of culture, but also an indispensable educational tool—and, above all, open to everyone.

“The goal is to make the information accessible and available to everyone. It’s the most practical and effective way to reach a broad audience,” according to Professor El Albani.

 

The museum is free and open to the public.
