Cellular components are precisely organized down to their very molecules, enabling the cell to perform fascinating processes like cell division. This artwork is a fusion of science and art – real microscopy images of dividing human cells overlaid with drawings that highlight the complex arrangement of DNA, cytoskeletal components, and cellular membranes within the cell division machinery.
This drawing was created to illustrate the research topics in Daniel Gerlich’s group at the Institute of Molecular Biotechnology (IMBA).
