AGiR! & HACKUARIUM
by Rachel Aronoff
Rachel Aronoff has always loved the gorgeous side of her research data, from molecular neurobio to the DNA damage assays, with her biological studies always having some artistic element or another.
For this Biosummit, pulling together just a few images was not simple, but one montage with her thinkpad decorations that explains biohacking at our community lab (Viva Open Science), two images raising existential points regarding our surveillance diagnostic method for Covid-19, Corona Detective (Is it still dry enough? & Seeing is believing!), a montage from some experiments with baby lichen, and finally just a pixar princess version of herself, is what can be found in this BioCreation Station folder now! (Could add further links to some of the intracellular flows in the lichen babies’ reticular network!)

Biologist: Broad international experience in basic research, in particular molecular microbiology and genetics. In the public service domain, as founder of AGiR! Action for Genomic integrity through Research!, Rachel acts to provide information about and promote projects around 'genomic integrity' to avoid risks for public health. Basically, genomic integrity is meant to include all the dynamic molecular genetic details of cells. Keen to aid efforts for open science, she has two genomic integrity projects running (to open-source classic tests of DNA damage detection) at the community laboratory association, Hackuarium, for which has been president since 2018.
