Illustration of one of our lab research projects in
collaboration with Kai-ou Tang, a student of Dr. Sandra Gabelli in
the 'Business Practices in Molecular Arts'
course: this graphic
work is based on the recent publication, “Compartmentalized AMPK Signaling
Illuminated by Genetically Encoded Molecular Sensors and Actuators”
(Miyamoto, 2015). Here, the compartmentalization of AMPK Signaling is
personified by transforming robots, whose form and function depend on the
cell organelle at which they reside. The
illustrator, Kai-ou Tang, is a graduate student in the Johns Hopkins
Department of Arts as Applied to
Medicine. August 18, 2015: Inoue lab got together at RedZone for the bi-annual idea contest party and to celebrate Elmer's birthday who just joined our lab as a BME M.S. student. Welcome Elmer!
