Health XP - Die interaktive Ausstellung

The interactive exhibition “Health XP” uses a playful approach to explain how modern medicine has evolved, what it can already do today, and what possibilities it opens up for the future. FromSeptember 3 to September 6, 2026, it will be on display at Willy-Brandt-Platz in Erfurt.

Health XP brings to life how modern medicine is developed and what it can already do for your life today. Across four themed stations, the exhibition showcases current research approaches in the areas of personalized medicine, prevention, women’s health, and cancer—topics that affect us all, regardless of age, background, or gender.

A special highlight is the interactive games: Using your own avatar, you’ll dive into the world of health, make decisions, and earn points. This playful approach lets you discover how behavior, research, and medical advances can impact your health.
