Sci-Tech Discovery Center will open in its new permanent home at the southeast corner of the Dallas North Tollway access road and Cotton Gin Road in Frisco on October 3. This milestone will be celebrated with the popular exhibit, Grossology based on the best-selling book. Grossology is science in disguise, allowing children to experience many aspects of the human body first hand, such as, a climbing wall of human skin, a larger than life nose tour, and an interactive 30 model of the digestive system. Sometimes it’s stinky; sometimes it’s crusty; and sometimes it’s slimy, but it’s your body. Sci-Tech Discovery Center is supported by Baylor Medical Center at Frisco, City of Frisco and Children’s Medical Center at Legacy.
