SUMMARY:Science Inspires Art – Art Inspires Science (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:(MD) (Natural History Society of Maryland) Researchers utilize a biochemical technique called clearing and staining to create skeletal images of vertebrates. This makes biological specimens transparent while simultaneously highlighting specific structures. Dr. Noah Bressman blends this scientific technique\, photography\, and digital effects to highlight the beauty within fish anatomy. \nHe will discuss how he makes his unique neon skeletons\, major influences on his work\, and how his work has changed over time. Come learn about the scientific discoveries Dr. Bressman has made in the pursuit of art!
