In this session, the research team will discuss the science-art dialogue at the heart of their collaboration between the fields of non-traditional drawing and Medical Research.
Explaining how they have integrated artistic creativity with scientific observations to reimagine biological (cellular and molecular) characteristics and behaviours, the team will expand on the idea that, at the heart of the science-art dialogue, is a focus upon the methodologies of creation rather than the outcomes themselves
