🎨  To help the audience conceptualize sexual #biofilms as they relate to conventional biofilms, this figure displays both in the fungal species, Candida albicans. The artist used soft colors & cartoon-like illustrations to make an intimidating concept more approachable! #SciArt 

🧑‍🎨 Anna is a recent #biology & #art degree graduate exploring different career paths that require creative & strategic #scicomm skills. One of these is scientific illustration! She loves how one graphic can capture much more than words & can reach a wide audience!

🧑‍🔬 The Nobile lab research is directed towards understanding the molecular & mechanistic bases of #microbial communities, such as #biofilms. They are studying how transcriptional networks underlie the regulation of gene expression during the development of these microbial communities
