Few of us today explored what UBC (The Peter Wall Institute)  has to offer during Lunch hour. Today we have been inspired to think about science and fashion in a different way: "Jacqueline Firkins, an assistant professor in UBC’s Dept. of Theatre and Film with the help of Scientist Dr Christian Naus, has created a collection of ball gowns inspired by microscopic photos of cancer cells and cellular systems to get people talking about the disease, beauty and body image."

The talk was inspiring, seeing how Science and Fashion could fusion like this opened up a lovely debate at the and of the talk.
