Thank you so much for hosting me, it was such a pleasure!

Another highlight: For the first time in its history, San Diego Comic-Con had its own #STEAM engagement room where we ran an immersive experience called Mission Control with people enjoying hands-on science experiments for their 'astronaut training'. Hope to take this to the next level in 2027!

This year's Comic-Con was unbelievable! I was incredibly honored to be on a panel with @wetaworkshop.bsky.social and some amazing IF/THEN scientists, exploring the overlap between science and creative work in film. I also had so much fun creating a 🐉🥚 cosplay for the newest member of our family!

I couldn't be more honored to speak at the #GNSI Visual #SciComm conference this weekend, where I’ll be sharing how I use visual metaphor to communicate complex science in intuitive ways. I can't wait to meet the @gnsiart.bsky.social community and learn new perspectives! #SciArt

I can't believe it's been 6 months since I last posted! I've been busy with an experiment that takes cell division to a whole new level. I’m so excited to raise a curious, resilient, and mighty woman in (maybe 😄) STEM! Thrilled to reconnect and share new (and old) updates soon! #BabyInSTEM 🐣

This drawing is an homage to Sir Paul Nurse's pioneering work on the #CellCycle, along with others who laid the groundwork for what we know today, and it's featured on the poster and abstract book of the Salk Cell Cycle meeting. Huge thanks to @salkinstitute.bsky.social‬ and conference organizers!

A common metaphor to describe cellular signaling pathways is an electronic circuit board, which sums up positive and negative input signals and transmits them to the output, which determines entry into mitosis. This is based on a realistic schematic that would be functional when built!

Beata Science Art @beatascienceart.bsky.social · 23/06/2025

Very excited to share my brand new 'Cell Cycle Circuit' drawing! It shows a signaling circuit that regulates mitotic entry in fission yeast, where a protein complex (Cdc2/CDK1-Cyclin B) integrates both positive (Cdc25) and negative signals (Wee1 & Mik1/Myt1) to decide when to divide. #CellCycle2025
