More information on Meguro Parasitological Museum

Medical scientists avail themselves of this research facility to continue the experiments of Satoru Kamegai, the facility's founder. On the first floor the visitor can view uncommon infectious bugs while the second floor is dedicated to parasites. Noteworthy specimens are displayed on panels, e.g. tapeworms whose length can reach many meters. Information on parasites related to malaria is another attraction. This is certainly the place to explore any thoughts you may have had about the effects of a parasite invasion on your own body!
