As for scientific art, there's histology, EM, general microscopy, etc. Even organic chemistry is pretty cool 'cause they have all the funky oddly shaped handblown glasswear. Sorry to say this, but molecular biology usually only involves pipeting very small amounts of clear liquid into very small tubes...not at all very exciting. It's kinda like on CSI, a little pipetting, a little centrifuging (and don't get me started on all the movies/shows that don't balance tubes in the fuge), and samples into some magic box, and tada! results from the printer.
Anyway, DNA scarf -- that's Art.
What about this? Is this ART? It's z's genes. Literally, it's his karyotype. I think it's beautiful, and that's not just because I'm the proud momma.

Stop by from craftster. Great blog!
I agree I love to watch CSI to catch and point out all the lab technique mistakes.
I took do alot of p-ing small amounts but I love running gels I think they are so pretty. Our imaging system for gels makes it fun to alture the image using colors. Really makes some beautiful art.
What do you work with? Animal, plant or other? I work with trees.
I've worked with coli, yeast (2 types), plants, small and large animals, and yes, even people samples.
