Is It Art Or Science?


Aurora 2006. Fluorescence microscopy of lung tissue and nuclei of cells.

Actually, it's both!

Join Dr. Troy Stevens, Director of the Center for Lung Biology at the University of South Alabama College of Medicine for an interesting lecture on Oct. 21, 2009, for a thoughtful discussion about a collection of fascinating images encountered by scientists as they conducted medical research.

The lecture will take place at the Mobile Museum of Art and is part of Med School Café, the USA Physicians Group’s monthly lecture series.

The Med School Café lecture and lunch (catered by The Palette Café) are provided free of charge, but reservations are required. To make reservations, please call (251) 460-7770 or e-mail kebarnes@usouthal.edu.

For a "sneak peak" at some of the images, visit Robertson Gallery at 450 Dauphin Street (images are in the back on the left).
