The 2016 Augusta University and University of Georgia Student Scientific & Medical Illustration Exhibition runs through May 31 at the Robert B. Greenblatt, MD Library on the Health Sciences Campus. More than fifty masterful pieces of scientific and medical illustration are on display. The scientific artwork documents and explains the natural world around us, and the medical artwork enlightens and inspires us about the world of health science and the inner-workings of the human body. The illustrations were created by students in the BFA program in scientific illustration at the University of Georgia and in the medical illustration graduate program at Augusta University. The illustrations are on display for public viewing at the computer lab on the first floor and throughout the second floor.
