Come to our Bio Art Mixer Tonight in the Lundgren Room of LSC. The mixer is open to all that loves Biology and Art. What better way to spend April fools day?!
Cool new collaborative paper with the Patteson lab!
Check out the paper from Maxx and the Patteson Lab (Physics, SU) here: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34995457/
Titled: Vimentin intermediate filaments mediate cell shape on visco-elastic substrates.
You can also find it on BioRxiv here: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.09.07.286237v1.full
Representative images of wild-type (vim +/+) and vimentin-null (vim -/-) mouse embryonic fibroblasts (mEF) on glass slides. Wild-type and vimentin-null mEFs show similar distributions of F-actin stress fibers and paxillin focal adhesions. Confocal images show vimentin (yellow), actin (blue), paxillin (green) and the nucleus (pink). Scale bar, 10 μm.
A great turnout for Bio-Art!
We had exceptional turnout and great discussion for this past Friday’s Bio-Art, with ~70 people showing up for the in person presentations and 50 people online! Thank you everyone for coming and being so engaging with our speakers!

Bio-Art Mixer (13th) Tonight at 6pm!
Boryana and I are happy to announce that our 13th Bio-Art Mixer is this Friday Nov 12 at 6pm in the Lundgren Room, 1st Floor Life and Sciences Building!
We have two exceptional speakers Anna Lindemann (https://annalindemann.com) from University of Connecticut and Biology’s own Alum, Kelly Schmid from Cornell University. Anna’s work combines Art and Biology where she uses digital and stop-motion animation, live and electronic music, video, and performance to explore the field of Evolutionary and Developmental Biology. Kelly Schmid is also interested in Evolutionary and Developmental Biology and is incorporating unique teaching strategies to bring her work to broader audiences.
We are attempting this to be a Hybrid event, our FIRST Hybrid Bio-Art mixer!
