The PCB Committee for Community Building packed lots of diapers at the diaper bank Friday! 10/10 recommend getting out in your community and volunteering. Especially during tumultuous times, it's great to do tangible things that help others.

The mighty Drosophila melanogaster for #ArtAdventCalendar day 9.
I have spent 20 years using Drosophila to answer questions about how cells and tissues coordinate their responses in both development and after injury. #art #science #Drosophila

Another from the AP art portfolio for day 4 of the #ArtAdventCalendar. This piece was inspired by the work of Chuck Close. I don't really enjoy (nor am I good at) drawing people. But I really enjoyed working on this piece and I actually love how it turned out!

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 3. A talented family friend made this beautiful, cute stained glass fruit fly for me. I have been working with Drosophila melanogaster as a model system in the lab for 20 years now!
