Image-Making in the Constitution of Scientific Knowledge” (an interdisciplinary symposium) Wednesday, October 24, 3:30 p.m. This symposium convened by faculty members Mark Auslander (anthropology) and Andreas Teuber (philosophy) explores the enigmatic relationship between science and art, with particular attention to the power of visual images in the scientific imagination. Inspired by the art of Steve Miller, whose work explores the mysteries of protein structures, we consider the visual dimensions of scientific thought in a range of disciplines.
