Science & Art
- It's my pleasure to announce the next Science Art Summit! There's gonna be balloons, sculptures, comics, animations, illustrations & installations. Tag along, it's free! Registration at www.scienceartsummit.com, retweets appreciated – the more the merrier
- Fresh handpainted dot-artwork cover design for a Cell paper: Melanoma cells release vesicles as decoys for T-cells, messing them up for good and allowing the tumor to evade our immune system
- Turns out endosymbionts living inside insect cells form extensive tubular networks spanning the whole cell to facilitate metabolite exchange – Fresh cover design with a neon twist.
- Sure, AI is great – can we next invent easy-to-peel stickers for stuff please?
- Hey #portfolioday! I'm a bloke who used to investigate Genetics before turning into a full-time Artist. Now I do handmade installations, molecular graffiti, and digital design to convey the beauty of Science.
- New cover fresh off the press: A handmade installation of glass marbles embedded in epoxy resin, symbolising an innovative protocol for turning cells into pluripotent stem cells and re-differentiating them into various cell types.
- A well-designed presentation is an act of kindness to your audience
- Quick & dirty experiment giving a Cell-Biology twist to the Great Wave by Hokusai
- #ArtAdventCalendar Day 8 Specialized hourglass-shaped connections between the nucleus & ER Took some inspiration from Kandinsky for that one, abstract geometry makes a lovely style for Cell Biology
- Can someone please explain Bluesky's obsession with Alt text to me? Genuinely curious
- #ArtAdventCalendar Day 7 Drosophila - Spraypaint on concrete
- #ArtAdventCalendar Day 6 C. Elegans - Spraypaint on concrete
- #ArtAdventCalendar Day 5 Ubiquitin - Spraypaint on conrete
- Come to think of it Scientists are actually as much problem creators as problem solvers lol
- Day 4 #ArtAdventCalendar: Arabidopsis in old-school carton optics Gotta love the 1920s rubber hose animation style
- Day 3: #ArtAdventCalendar Genome Research Cover on DNA compaction in sperm cells of different vertebrates Digital collage made in Photoshop
- Day 2: #ArtAdventCalendar Handmade Mosaic for a Nature Methods Cover. I built a lamp into the frame so the animation is the real deal, no CGI
- ound a nice tool to animate Typography and played around with DNA sequences - it's super easy, fun & free to use, if you wanna animate sequences check out www.spacetypegenerator.com
- Tis the season! Stitched together thousands of fluorescent fruit fly embryos to spell out the very (chemical) letters all life on earth is based on - in a sparkly holiday vibe
- Happy #PortfolioDay! I'm a bloke who traded investigating nematodes & RNAs for making Art all day every day #NoMoreLabCoatsJustPaintCoats

- Fun fact: BioRxiv preprints have no formatting requirements - you can actually make your manuscript look nice before uploading it
- In labs around the world scientists are growing miniature versions of human organs in a petridish - Microengineering meets biology at the organoid frontier! Fresh design for a new organoid research center at @tumuenchen.bsky.social
- Thinking about switching from Academia to Science Freelancing? Here's my story of going from a struggling Postdoc to living my passion as a Science Artist:
- Strange forces tear space & time apart - behold Earth people! Spraypaint on concrete.
- I had the pleasure of talking about Science, Art & Creativity with Kenan Kraković in the most recent episode of his podcast. We had a blast chatting, so if these topics interest you check it out 👇 www.youtube.com/watch?v=Beyu...
