This is a topography of the immunochemistry of a mouse brain. The similarities of the human brain and mouse brain are shockingly similar in structure and organs.

With over 3000 mutant strands, C. elegans are widely used in laboratory experiments such as aging, because they are so easily and cheaply maintained

This is HeLa cells and it is just a long line of cells that came from a tumor from an Africa American. HeLa cells are used in various laboratories and are used to study the cause of diseases and to examine the offect of medicine.

| Tricia This is a photo of a crystallized sulfur. Sulfur is inside our bodies and bond together to make several parts of our bodies. Sulfur helps the skin create elasticity, which creates a youthful look for people. Once the elasticity wears down with aging, wrinkles start to appear because of the looser bonds sulfur has with each other. |

The picture shows the co-localization of two enzymes with iron as a co-factor in a dopaminergic neuron. The yellow that is seen represents iron. Iron in the body is good, but high amounts of it has a negative effect. Parkinson's Disease is one of the diseases that is researched because its cause relates to the amount of iron in the body.

The artwork above displays a young and mature round worm. The one on the left is the mature one and as you can see has lost organs and nutrients. The young round worm is thicker and full of nutrients and organs.

The image shown here is of an experiment done with mice with symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. The lines are the tracings of the paths that the mice took around a circular arena. The mice on the left with more tracings are the ones that have the symptom of wandering, the mice on the right are healthy.
Julie, showing us how Breast Cancer cells have a distinctly different, unhealthy look- bloated irregular- unsightly for sure !

This is a picture of a data plot overlaid by a gene interaction network of a cell. A gene interaction network shows how certain parts of a cell

What you see here is the two different types of fat(adipose) cells put into a collage. The two types are known as white fat and brown fat. White fat tissue serves three main functions: heat insulation, mechanical cushion, and a source of energy. Brown fat is full of mitochondria. Studying fat for aging is vital since fat creates Leptin in our body, an important hormone in regulating appetite.

Then we fed our hungry brains at the dining hall on the Dominican campus and had an awesome campus tour !
