Physiologist Professor Frances Ashcroft of Oxford University and artist Benedict Rubbra collaborated to produce this abstract painting of insulin secretion now on show at the University Museum of Natural History, Oxford. The subject of Professor Ashcroft's research is the release of insulin from the b cells of the pancreas in response to sugar in the bloodstream. Rubbra created two paintings, which symbolise “the unfolding drama of the living cell at work,” after conversations with Professor Ashcroft and visits to her laboratory. The exhibition continues until 31 July.
