🎨 1. This piece depicts B-cells, antibodies, and strands of free-flowing #DNA. These objects are intertwined with one another to represent the connection of these elements in the process of B-cell genome modification and the formation of unique #antibodies. 
🎨 2. B-cell with its DNA spilling out with a wave of antibodies flowing through. The piece places an emphasis on the DNA & antibodies of the B-cell arranged in a crisscross to represent the intersection of B-cell genome modification & its role in creating distinct antibodies.

🧑‍🎨 Nadia Kafil is a #biochemistry major at UTAustintx. #SciComm

🧑‍🔬 The Basu lab is interested in genetic, epigenetic and #RNA associated regulatory pathways that are required for the development of adaptive #immunity.  basulabnyc.org
