<div class="togglecontent nojs">
<p>In 1816, Mary Shelley conceived a story about a scientist who creates a creature that can think and feel, but is monstrous to the eye. Spurned by all, the embittered creature turns into a savage killer. Shelley&rsquo;s story served as a metaphor for apprehensions about scientific advancement that continue to resonate today. <em>Frankenstein: Penetrating the Secrets of Nature</em> explores the power of this story to expose hidden fears of science and technology as human efforts to penetrate the secrets of nature continue.</p>
<p><em>Frankenstein</em> is a display of six roll-up graphic banners that travel in two containers, each measuring 48”(h) x 19”(w) x 19” (d) and weighing 55 lbs.</p>

<p>NLM offers high-quality, reliable biomedical and health information through <a href="https://eresources.nlm.nih.gov/nlm_eresources/">electronic resources</a>. Consider planning programming that connects audiences to NLM resources while hosting our exhibitions or at any time.</p>
<ul class="normal">
<li><strong>Plan seasonal programming or National Health Observance events around NLM health information resources: </strong>
<ul class="normal">
<li><span>For Talk to Your Doctor Month (August) or World AIDS Day (December), partner with a local research hospital to <a href="https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/about-studies/learn">use ClinicalTrials.gov to share accessible information</a> about what clinical trials are, the range of ways to participate, and what questions to ask when considering enrolling in <a href="https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/results?recrs=ab&amp;cond=HIV%2FAIDS&amp;map_cntry=US">HIV/AIDS-related clinical trials</a>.</span></li>
<li><span>For Rare Disease Day (February 28) or National Public Health Week (first week in April), explore a story of scientific discovery in NLM&rsquo;s <a href="https://profiles.nlm.nih.gov/">Profiles in Science</a>. Have participants write or create art about who they look up to and why in the history of health and health care.</span></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Support library career development using NLM health information resources:</strong>
<ul class="normal">
<li><span>Devote a series of library staff professional development sessions to how to use NLM&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.nlm.nih.gov/bsd/disted/video/clin_info/">medical informatics resources to support health IT and researchers</a>.</span></li>
