You are invited to participate in a bioart project in connection with the Freshman Common Reading. The 20/20 Biome Project involves the bacteria found on the members of the class of 2020—the bacteria that is part of each individual’s microbiome. The bacteria will be cultured in individual petri dishes, and those dishes will be sealed and incorporated into a temporary art installation in the new Bridge for Laboratory Sciences building. This bioart project will offer a unique visualization of the class of 2020.Reception will take place from 4-5pm, followed by a lecture by Rob Dunn, author of the Freshman Common Reading for the Class of 2020, The Wildlife of Our Bodies, at 5:30pm in the Villard Room.
