Ground Works Publishes “Unfolding the Genome”

Nov 17, 2021

A2RU is pleased to announce the publication of a new entry, “Unfolding the Genome,” on Ground Works, our online peer-reviewed platform for arts-integrated research. “Unfolding the Genome” recounts a visual artist and a research scientist’s collaboration that resulted in compelling artwork as well as advances in the scientific community’s understanding of how the human genome folds.

“I’m really excited about this addition to the Ground Works collection,” says Managing Editor Veronica Stanich. “The authors’ first-person account of their shared process adds so much to our understanding of how arts-integrated research gets done. And the images of artist Gupi Ranganathan’s work alongside images of evolving mathematical models tell a story of their own.”

Ground Works has a rolling call for submissions, and the editorial staff is happy to consult one-on-one with potential submitters; email a2ru-editorgw@umich.edu to arrange a consultation.
