There is a lot in common between science and art. Both require creative thinking, innovation, experimentation and striking that fine balance between rational and imaginative thinking. But what happens when the two professions come together to create a piece of art that depicts the beauty of science?

We paired research scientists with artists from around the world, each exhibiting their own incredibly unique and distinctive artistic styles. From intricate embroidery and powerful poetry, to character animation and environmental design, the ‘Art of Cells’ project promises to showcase the true beauty of cells in a way that has never been done before.

In this moving series of videos, artists explore the deeper meanings of cell research, revealing the aspirations, the unique perspectives and, of course, the dedication of researchers.

Join us as we continue the exploration of the remarkable connection between scientists and their cells. Witness the reactions of each scientist as the artwork that they inspired is revealed before their eyes. Experience the smiles, the laughs, and even the tears as these inspirational scientists see their work interpreted in a way that they never could have imagined.
