The University of Michigan Center for Organogenesis unites scientists from many fields who work together to study organ growth, function and disease. The goal from these studies is to design new and effective ways to treat disease and repair damaged organs. In the course of this work, we use the microscope and special stains or “colors” to look at tissues for changes that could affect our health. These tiny biological structures are often beautiful and we share them with you here as “Bioartography”, a fascinating combination of art and science.

All images have been submitted to the Center for Organogenesis from Faculty, Research Scientists, Postdoctoral & Predoctoral Fellows, Graduate and Undergraduate Students. All proceeds support research training at the University of Michigan, Center for Organogenesis. For more information, please contact the Center for Organogenesis at 734/936-2499 or rpintar@umich.edu.
