Congratulations to our 2014 CASE award winners

The UF Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) Science for Life Program and the College of Fine Arts recently announced the winners of the 2014 Creativity in the Arts and Sciences Event (CASE). Held February 1, 2014, CASE brought together more than 125 students with backgrounds in the sciences and arts to rethink the boundaries of creativity.

Now in its eighth year, the CASE features science research posters, 2-D/3-D art exhibits, film, and dance/music/theatre performances. Students from eight UF colleges and approximately 50 different departments and disciplinary programs as well as students from EMBRY-Riddle Aeronautical University, Emory University and Louisiana State University competed this year for prizes in three categories: science, art or science/art collaboration.
