The women's health exhibit is quite good, particularly because of its
multidimensional approach. In addition to covering the science of women's
health, it helps visitors examine the personal choices they make and
confronts topics like self-image. (In one section, it compares photos-and
average measurements-of real women's bodies to idealized versions, like
Barbie.) I believe it's now at the Maryland Science Center.
