Check out the article posted on SciCommBites by Caroline Cencer at Vanderbilt University on the importance of Art in Science. I had the please to chat with Caroline about the BioArt Research Coalition of Syracuse and she also featured ArtLab at Vanderbilt University.

Come see Chimera 2 this Thursday
Chimera, an Art Opening at Syracuse University, and presenting at CNY Zebrafish Meeting
The Hehnly Lab had an eventful weekend that kicked off with the opening of Chimera, a menagerie of Art/Bio studies from Bio and Art students along with professional artists that ended with a juxtaposition of Microscopic Micrographs, Murals, and Illustrations filling Shaffer Hall. The BioArt Class and subsequent art show, Chimera, was a labor of love from Hehnly lab members Nikhila Kirshnan, Debadrita Pal, Abrar Aljiboury, Mike Bates, and Favour Ononiwu who worked closely with BioArt students. The class was co-taught by Heidi Hehnly (Biology) and resident Artist in the Hehnly Lab, Boryana Rossa, who is an Associate Professor in The School of Visual and Performing Arts.
The Lab also attended the CNY Zebrafish conference where Debadrita Pal (Hehnly Lab Postdoc) and Nikhila Krishnan (Hehnly Lab Senior Grad Student) presented their work orally. Yan Wu (Hehnly Lab Postdoc) and Jonah Da Silva presented their work in the form of posters, and Favour Ononiwu attended. Congrats to everyone that presented.
Below is a series of photos documenting both events.
