The original exhibit was featured at Washington Dulles International Airport\, and was the inspiration for this project. The images include cells from the human body\, in addition to cells and structures of model organisms like fruit f lies and zebrafish. Though many of the vibrant colors do not occur natural ly\, the chemical dyes and enhancements are a normal part of the processes that allow researchers to study structures within a cell. Specially order ed\, low-profile light boxes enhance the colors and structures displayed i n the photographs. More information about the project can be found on the NIH website.

This helps reduce the risk of cavit ies.\n\nChildren undergoing cancer treatment are at a much higher risk for cavities due to side effects like dry mouth. This is highlighted by the C AMBRA (Caries Risk Assessment by Risk Management) standard of care.\n\nThi s exhibit highlights the collaborative study that evaluated how well healt hcare providers understand the importance of fluoride varnish\, their comf ort level with using it\, and their willingness to include it in the treat ment plans for pediatric cancer patients to reduce their risk of cavities\ ; their findings and recommendations.\n\nThe West Virginia University Offi ce of Interprofessional Education\, in collaboration with WVU Libraries\, honors students and faculty and staff with Awards for Excellence in Interp rofessional Education.

These photos are showcased in the Health Sciences Library study rooms.\n\nAfter gradua ting from the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale and a biomedical photograph y internship at Mount Sinai Hospital in Miami Florida\, Allan Jones began his medical photography profession at the WVU Hospital/Eye Center before c ontinuing his career for 17 years at the King Khaled eye Hospital and the King Faisal Specialist Hospital in Saudi Arabia. After returning to the WV U Eye Institute in 2004\, Allan retired in 2008.\n\n \n\nLife: Magnified\n \nThe installation is a selection of images from the NIH National Institut e of General Medical Science's Life: Magnified's collection. The original exhibit was featured at Washington Dulles International Airport\, and was the inspiration for this project. The images include cells from the human body\, in addition to cells and structures of model organisms like fruit f lies and zebrafish. Though many of the vibrant colors do not occur natural ly\, the chemical dyes and enhancements are a normal part of the processes that allow researchers to study structures within a cell. Specially order ed\, low-profile light boxes enhance the colors and structures displayed i n the photographs. More information about the project can be found on the NIH website.
