Golgi apparatus / Neatness

Golgi apparatus (also named Golgi complex, Golgi body, or simply the Golgi)

Is an organelle found in most eukaryotic cells. It was identified in 1897 by the Italian physician Camillo Golgi. Part of the cellular endomembrane system, the Golgi apparatus packages proteins into membrane-bound vesicles inside the cell before the vesicles are sent to their destination. The Golgi apparatus resides at the intersection of the secretory, lysosomal, and endocytic pathways. It is of particular importance in processing proteins for secretion, containing a set of glycosylation enzymes that attach various sugar monomers to proteins as the proteins move through the apparatus.

Due to its cellular role, the Golgi apparatus in the LaB. World, is used as a metaphor of Neatness.

Bio-creations:

Lab.

Ιn 2012, Vasia created lαΒ., a hybrid world of Science and Art, as a child with two equally developed brain hemispheres. Combining her knowledge from the field of Cytogenetics with imagination, brings the basic elements of life outside laboratory aiming to communicate her science through a different path.

In the world of lαB., typical biological structures are transformed into unique bio-conceptual creations. Basic functions of life return to their primitive form: Matter, Genesis, Energy, Movement, Senses; all equally combined, they embody the charm of a balanced and magnificent microcosm.

This newborn microcosm, unlike the real one, is ready to accept hybrid creations and creatures with scientific structure, beauty charm and bio-conceptual symbolism. Wearable Science is a way to embrace our Intelligence and to evolve the meaning of beauty.

In the world of lαΒ., Intelligence is the new Beauty.
