2022/2023 cohort This project is a detailed exploration of a fictional parasite, “Parasyte,” from its larval stage to its detection and abilities. The exhibit includes physical models and diagrams that illustrate the parasite’s characteristics and its life cycle. The parasite’s physiology and abilities include shape-shifting, rapid healing of injuries, unnatural strength, and the development of […]

2022/2023 cohort This project explores the potential adaptations of the human body for survival in a zero-gravity, atmosphere-free environment. The project focuses on two main areas of adaptation: the skin and the ears. The human skin is adapted to contend with the lack of gravity, extreme temperatures, and hazardous UV radiation. To combat the absence

2022/2023 cohort This project explores the concept of human adaptation to a world with limited light. It’s an imaginative study proposing that humans could develop biological features to see in the dark. The project hypothesizes the use of luciferin and luciferase, chemicals found in bioluminescent organisms, to create a glow. This glow would be emitted

2024/2025 cohort The project reimagines the Marvel character through the lens of speculative anatomy and design. It blends comic book fantasy with scientific inquiry, exploring how retractable claws might integrate into the human musculoskeletal system. At its center is a skeletal hand model, detailed with musculature and mechanical components to illustrate the proposed claw mechanism.

2024/2024 cohort The project presents an imaginative, sci-fi–inspired exploration of the respiratory system, framed through the narrative of a planetary landing and biological discovery. It explores how organisms might evolve to survive in Mars’ harsh environment, such as low pressure environment, high Concentration of Carbon Dioxide and extreme temperatures​. A key innovation is the design
