Journey to the microscopic world of cells in a multimedia experience fusing dance, visuals and electro-symphonic music by Multiverse Concert Series—only at the Museum of Science Boston!How do our cells navigate their worlds? How do they know to form the intricate structures of the body—and what happens when their signaling processes go wrong? Explore these questions and more with Multiverse Concert Series as we take you on a journey from the heart of a single cell and its inner symbiosis, through its struggle to survive in a harsh microbial world, and the delicate dance of the tissues within a developing embryo.
Choreographer Meg Anderson and her ensemble are joined by composer David Ibbett and pianist William Hume to perform an immersive ballet based on research of cell biologist Alexey Veraksa of UMass Boston Biology, exploring the science of cell signaling in the embryo, leading to treatments for developmental conditions such as spina bifida.
The performers are joined by thoracic surgeon Chi-Fu Jeffrey Yang of Harvard Medical School, who works to understand individual risk factors in our cellular world and whose focus on lung cancer screening saves lives.
Multiverse concerts entice you to wonder, question the world around you, delve deeply into new realms of thought—and leave with new perspectives on our evolving world.
