Jimmy Carter's Fight Against Guinea Worm: A Personal Reflection
open.substack.com/pub/bktitanj...

RIP Jimmy Carter 🫡

#JimmyCarter led the eradication efforts against the Guinea worm, a debilitating parasitic worm. A few years ago, I stitched the worm emerging from a skin blister while being wound onto a stick, which is the traditional treatment. News links in comments. #sciart 🐡

For the many parasitologists in the starter packs who are malaria researchers, this post is for you!

For the fiber art nerds:
This was my third embroidery project and first try at thread painting. I was still very much a newbie lol! But I’m also still pretty happy with this one. #sciart 🐡

Here’s the mammary gland project in its new home, alongside a cell in anaphase and a neuromuscular junction. #sciart 🐡

Amazing! ‘Twinkling Toxoplasma’ Tree (image by Kseniia Bondarenko) wins 2024 Festive Science Image Competition.

I tried making one of these "starter packs" for Parasitology peeps :)

Feel free to extend the gap!!

I've posted this before but only in the other place, here is a mini mini quilt I made a while ago with some recently added embroidery. #sciart #anatomy

Mammary gland embroidery: non-lactating on the left and lactating on the right.

All the progress pictures and my other work is over at Instagram.com/bio.stitch

Mammary gland update - almost finished! 🐡 #sciart

Duct system for the non-lactating side is finished. All that’s left is the lactating side. I’d originally thought about putting in adipose tissue but I’m not sure now. Thoughts? #sciart 🐡

Progress on my current project - adding in the duct system to the mammary gland embroidery
