Jennifer Nr Smith
The social life of mitochondria
By 2020, on trip to Devon, England, Jennifer Nr Shith (surface) Swims to sea. Like the night’s fall, the water began to shine light from bioluminescent algae. “This is Electric Blue,” he remembered. “If you lift your arm out of the water, it is different from your skin. It is the most wonderful experience I have ever experienced.” Smith, who has completed a medical illustration program, he feels necessary to immediately get this event.
Smith has taken from that experience to make his own style of illustration, combining traditional collage textures and paper called reverse stippling-thepicks on a dark background. The technique is surprised to surprise him for the natural world, with dots that represent more than the flecks of algae in his skin. “They can be in the sky at night or atoms, even macro or the micro.”

Alec Luhn
Refeezing in the Arctic
In February Climate Report Alec Luhn took four days and four planes to travel to Canada’s Cambridge Bay’s Nunavut Territory. This is his second trip to the Arctic Circle for American American-Pa 2023 He went to Alaska to investigate why the rives in the Kobuuk Valley National Park returned to Orange. At this point, while reporting the efforts of narrowing the parts of the dissolved arctic to prevent the worst effects of climate change, he hit how strong it was to change the environment.
“This is the Northwest Passage – the Holy Grail to explore the sea for 400 years,” says Luhn, who refers to the oceans of the sea connecting the oceans of Atlantic and Pacific. Many colonial explorers died trying to navigate the ice-clogged sea lane, “but now that ice is melting to the degree that cruise ships go through the northwest passage every single summer, he says, are struggling to maintain a way of life that depends heavily on sea Ice for hunting, transportation, and more.
Like Luhn saw efforts to encourage melted cape, he often wondered how these colonial efforts to bow down their will. “And we are now, trying to bring our technology to bring forces of nature” to prevent the digestion we continue to cause, as he does. “Will you succeed this time?”
Rowan Jacobsen
Can sunlight pain be sick?
In the past few years the Science Journalist Rowan Jacobsen was amazed at the effect of light of our bodies. “We are more likely to think that light is as ephemeral,” he said, however it is physical – we have always been bombed by photons. “There is no way it has no effect on health, in a way,” he said. In fact, the research shows medicine fields that people show in excellent light with better health results. In our content for this issue, Jacoben explores new phototherapies for autoimmune conditions such as many sclerosis.
Jacobsen wrote many books, subjects including oysters, truffles and chocolate. The food, he said, a “candestine” way to get people interested in the natural world. For his next book, how the light affects health, he recently began a “self experiment.” Jacoben rented a 1962 airstream in southwestern Arizona and spent a month without artificial light at night. After sunset “nothing to do (except) lying down and watching the stars,” he said.
Jacobsen returned to his house in Vermont before we spoke for this interview, and he reported altered. “My strength and my focus are amazing,” he said, recognizing progress mostly on the first morning. The “less (artificial) light of the night is good, but I think the bright day in the morning is exactly important.”
Jay Bendt
Health Science
Jay Bendt fell in his career to describe “backwards,” he said. He plans to take the way to many members of his family and be a doctor. But in his first year of college, he declared the interest in drawing an administrative form and accidentally sorted by an art track. “It’s too young, I’m like, ‘You know what, that’s actually not as a bad idea,’ he remembered. Bendt grew up in the age of deviantart, an online art platform famous in the 2000s, and encouraged “mahical girl” “aesthetic to Sailor month and other anime. After graduating from a painting degree, he learned to include these interests with formal, thinking skills to become a freelance illustrator.
Bendt described American AmericanScience in the Health column, lydia denworth wrote. The column of this issue is about the impact of gath bacteria’s exercise is a specified challenge. “Anything with bacteria with this one I need to think about more” so that it might be original, he said; It’s too easy to fall into drawing small anthropomorphic cells. For editorial illustrations, Bendt has chosen a style equal to the story, but his personal work is not disappointed. “I try to do the job that, once you find, you need to look at it.”
