We continued the activity developed on bioinformatics puzzles by our two-months exhibition in 2010 at Palais de la découverte (science museum in Paris). These “puzzles du génome” explain the basics of sequence assembly, RNA secondary structures and phylogenetic reconstruction http://www.lifl.fr/~giraud/puzzles . In 2011, we demonstrated these puzzles to more than 350 pupils in 7 high schools of the region (J.F. Berthelot, S. Blanquart, M. Giraud, L .Ott, A. Saffarian, M. Salson).
