SFSU and the Center for Cellular Construction (CCC)

As a SFSU Cell and Molecular biologist, I may have a particularly high interest in the matter, but I found some of the recent coverage of the Center for Cellular Construction (CCC) to be extremely captivating and worthy of sharing. From the following videos, to a recent Forbes article that highlights our University's involvement with the center, I have been continually impressed and inspired. This video was produced by Criszel Corpus, a fellow science communicator. I found this video to be especially well edited and I thought it did a great job of connecting emotion to science, which is often very difficult to do. More information about the CCC can be found here. The following video is also a recent release of Criszel Corpus and is equally as thought provoking, but in different ways. I thought that it was fascinating that each of the videos had its o

wn mood, whilst showcasing great scientific communication. Each video is as inspirational as it is informational. The most intriguing coverage I found was not actually in the format of a video but instead an article published in Forbes magazine. The article highlights many det

ails of the CCC along with great scientific insight. I am not a frequent Forbes reader but I thought the coverage was noteworthy. You can find the Forbes article here, or you can click on the image to the right. I would give the following article a read, if not a glance, because its not everyday you see such an interesting and inspirational project with such interesting and inspirational people.

Yours Truly,
