This is an axial slice of the neck that appears like the face of a monster. The nose is the spinal cord, the eyes are arteries. The white face boundary was manually drawn.

This MRI was taken of my brain after a skull fracture and concussion. It represents the expansion of the mind that comes through healing.

Cancer complicates about 1 in 1000 pregnancies. Luckily, we recently found that treatment during pregnancy doesn't need to impair the neurodevelopment of the child (Blommaert et al. 2020), adding to the growing evidence that cancer treatment during pregnancy is possible.

Acrylic painting of a Purkinje cell inspired by drawings of Santiago Ramon y Cajal. Purkinje cells were first discovered in 1839, by Jan Evangelista Purkyne.

DTI Data from the Lifespan Human Connectome Project was used to train a Generative Adversarial Network to create a DTI tensor field on which deterministic tractography was run. In this way, we generated a tractogram of a machine imagined brain inspired by HCP big data. Multiple renders are provided including the tractogram, close ups of the resolution of the tractogram, and brownian motion renderings within the tractogram.

What is my actual mind? Just a few ideas in the world. Connections are what make us so-called distinctive.

Micro-vascular template of cerebral vessels (n=34) obtained using a high-resolution susceptibility-weighted imaging based MICRO protocol. Vessel enhancement was induced by administering ultra-small superparamagnetic iron oxides (USPIO).

Multi-photon captured z stack of pyramidal neurons in the CA1 region of the hippocampus in a Thy-1 YFP expressing mouse. The captured z stack was converted into a z project image in Image J (FiJi) and had a LUT adjustment to produce the brilliant orange/purple colour scheme. The intense detail of the multi-photon image captures fragments of surrounding neurons producing a paint splatter effect.

The continuous reciprocal exchange during social interaction is crucial for us as human beings. This image shows the beauty of social interaction by visualizing the synchrony of two interacting people via neural signals and wavelet coherence.

Ideas bloom in the brain, neuronal connections grow and die, like the birth and death of a flower. The brain stem is "tronc cérébral" in French, "tronc" meaning trunk. The cerebellum and brain stem are represented here as the roots of the brain vegetation.

This painting is a cross-generational collaboration. The skill includes underlying prints and scratches. The color implies the dynamic brain activation.

Through the lens of imaging techniques we look as an outside observer into the deep oscillatory nature of one of the most complex organic systems to link neural measures with human-made abstract concepts. The eye represents the circularity in the process of research to fit empirical data of a self-organising system with constructed theories of that system.

The brain’s multi-system organization involves advanced signal processing and network connectivity across structures. The tree and leaves reflect the arborization of these neural connections that can be shaped by environmental influences (*lo-res version submitted due to max file size restriction)

3D representation of the cerebral micro-vasculature obtained using a vesselness filter on the high-resolution susceptibility-weighted MICRO data. Vessel enhancement was induced by administering ultra-small superparamagnetic iron oxides (USPIO). The cerebral vessels resemble the small branches of a tree, visualized in red-green Christmas aesthetic.

This video is a behavioral neuroscience teaching tool. It’s the product of over 2000 hours of design and hand-drawn animation. The work was initially drawn by hand in a sketchbook and later redrawn and animated in photoshop. Its most unique contribution is in explaining Hebb’s third postulate. This is done by illustrating the process by which an external stimulus can trigger a train of thought while still maintaining the real-life relevance of the animation narrative.

Through collaboration between Dr. Taylor Kuhn, coordinator of the Human Connectome Project (HCP) at UCLA, and technology partners Siemens and NVIDIA, Refik Anadol Studio (RAS) develops a dynamic network at the intersection of neuroscience and art to study fundamental questions about the human brain.
This experience showcases visual re-imaginings of the relationship between form (spatial connections) and function (temporal connections) of the human mind.
