Arbeitsgruppe Franziska Matthäus - The Art of Theoretical Biology

THANK YOU!

Dear authors,

Our book entitled The Art of Theoretical Biology has been released in early 2020. We want to thank you very much for all the fantastic images you submitted. Without your engagement this project would not have been possible.


Beauty of Biology Contributions
Some selected contributions (Authors: Wim Hordijk, Chandler Gatenbee, Maximilian Strobl, Mark Robertson-Tessi, Jill Gallaher, Alexander Anderson, Gaëlle Letort)

About the book

Data analysis, numerical treatment of a model, or simulation results can result in stunning images which represent pieces of art just by themselves. We were collecting images created in the process of research in theoretical biology, and combined them with a short research story and the story of the image generation process. This resulted in a book comprising over 70 images from over 120 authors. The book was released by SpringerNature in early 2020. In the future, we plant to prepare the images for exhibition at conferences and public locations to rise awareness towards the field of theoretical biology.
