Precipitation in (Quasi)2D
Label Precipitation in (Quasi)2d Artist Amari Morris Description This art was done in a 2D Heleshaw cell. The picture is sodium silicate and cobalt chloride reaction that creates a precipitate. The patterns and colors of this reaction are determined by concentration, the flow rate and solvents. The growth of precipitates can help with the understanding…

The Colors of Chemistry
Label The Colors of Chemistry Artist Ashley Arcidiacono Description In the Hanson Group, we rely on dyes that absorb many colors of light. Here, you see a column (a separation technique that leverages polarity to separate side products in organic reactions) for a target BODIPY dye. BODIPY dyes are extremely fluorescent and can be used…

Structure and Function are in the Eyes of the Beholder
Label Structure and Function are in the Eyes of the Beholder Artist Mehran Fazli Description Hormone releasing cells form structural networks, illustrated by edges in the graph. The cells produce electrical oscillations, and nodes of the same color are synchronized with one another but not with nodes of different colors. This is a functional network…

Desert Nights
Label Desert Nights Artist Maggie Cooper Description This microscope image shows the growth of a nickel and magnesium hydroxide precipitate membrane within a microfluidic channel. These wholly inorganic, self-assembled structures have been studied since the days of the alchemists and are utilized now in the search for the origins of life on earth and elsewhere.…

Colored Bodies
Label Colored Bodies Artist Sadia Sayed Description Our lab mainly focuses on the organization and maintenance of chromatin on the inactive X chromosome (Xi). We use gRNA mediated gene deletion, exploiting CRISPR/Cas9 system to delete specific gene of interest from primary cell line. In this image, a technique called FISH (fluorescence in-situ hybridization) is used…

Flight Data Visualization of COPA Airlines
Label Flight Data Visualization of COPA Airlines Artist Sarthak Sharma Description This is an exercise in data visualization. It is important to be able to visualize data, to get important insights that may not be apparent when we look at just numbers. This visualization uses Machine Learning to predict flight delays in departure and arrival…

All Paths Lead to the Best Tree
Label All Paths Lead to the Best Tree Artist Marzieh Khodaei Description Phylogenetic trees are fundamental for understanding the evolutionary history of a set of species. Understanding the local neighborhoods of a phylogenetic tree is essential, but since trees are high-dimensional objects, discussing these neighborhoods is difficult. We developed the Python package Pathtrees that uses…
