I had always had a love and interest in drawing and painting at a young age, but I grew up with a nurse for a mother who always actively shared with me her love for the medical field. I maintained a simultaneous interest in both art and science throughout college. I majored in biology while minoring in chemistry and studio art. When I graduated, I learned about the awesome field of medical illustration and applied for graduate programs straight away!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignfull size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/artthescience.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/unnamed-2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"452\" src=\"https:\/\/artthescience.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/unnamed-2.png\" alt=\"Infographic with rhodopsin protein, made of lots of spiral subunits, sitting in cell membrane.

How would you define it?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SciArt is the perfect intersection of science and art, and it shows how one cannot function without the other. The beauty of science relies on art to be communicated, while art relies on rigorous practice and efficiency, like science, to be created. It\u2019s an amazing symbiotic relationship, and it\u2019s very exciting to see the highlighting of this practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignfull size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/artthescience.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/unnamed-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"444\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/artthescience.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/unnamed-1.png\" alt=\"Illustration of bathroom sink and counter covered in short hair and a pair of scissors\" class=\"wp-image-10435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artthescience.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/unnamed-1.png 444w, https:\/\/artthescience.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/unnamed-1-208x300.png 208w, https:\/\/artthescience.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/unnamed-1-100x144.png 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 444px) 100vw, 444px\" \/><\/a><figcaption><em>Cutting Loose<\/em> by Morgan N.
