    CHF opens the door to reactions—both chemical and personal—with its newest exhibit, Marvels and Ciphers: A Look Inside the Flask. 
    For centuries, scientists have struggled to understand the material world—with varying degrees of success. Public responses to scientific debate and discovery are even more varied. A single breakthrough can elicit fascination and hope as well as anxiety and fear. 
    With paintings, photographs, books, and cartoons, Marvels and Ciphers explores the inevitable social complexity of scientific pursuits. Visit the official website for a preview of the exhibit and information on accompanying public programs.
