CRUDO: Dissection Labs for Latinos - Lungs, Heart & Trachea
About CRUDO: Dissection Labs for Latinos - Lungs, Heart & Trachea
Dive into hands-on anatomy / Designed for Adults / Solo and Duo ticket / Latino Vibes
TECH23, Houston’s leading Latino science, tech, and culture media company, brings you CRUDO, a six-part bilingual organ dissection lab series hosted at The Health Museum.
CRUDO (Spanish for “raw”), invites Houston’s Latino community to experience real organ dissections led by bilingual MDs and surgeons in a culturally immersive, hands-on environment unlike anything the city has seen before. Designed for adults in a family-friendly environment with Latino vibes, each session places participants in lab coats at dissection tables, scalpels in hand, guided by a bilingual MD. This is not a lecture. It’s a fun and interactive opportunity to learn about the health challenges facing our community while actually holding the respective organ in your hands. Walk away with facts and tips you can share with your loved ones to live a healthier lifestyle.
PULMÓN, CORAZÓN Y TRÁQUEA. Every argument, every song, every prayer, every "te quiero" started with a breath. These three organs are connected and have been keeping you alive through all of it.
