Art-Science collaborations...
2024 - Balance: Showcasing the dynamic life cycle of neutrophils.
This is the current pinacle from a close collaboration with Keisha Grant, director and choreographer of Keneish Dance, Birmingham, that started in 2020. About the piece: Ever wondered what the tiny cells that work in your body do all day everyday? Watch 'Balance' as dancers morph into the microscopic marvels of immune cells. A mesmerising and high-spirited dance theatre performance, inspiring wonder and appreciation of the human body.
2024 - Science-Poetry by Sujatha Menon.
Poems were inspired by conversations with the poet Sujatha Menon about the way we do experiments in the lab and the questions that motivate our research. The poem 'Cytoskeleton of a Spell' was shortlisted for the Artemesia Arts International Poetry competition. Poems were presented at the Resonate Festival at University of Warwick and will be displayed on a poetry trail along the campus in 2025.
