In 2024, University of Georgia Associate Professor Nadja Zeltner received a grant to advance research in human cell generation, including adrenal gland organoids used to study disease.
Adrenal gland organoids are tiny, lab-grown versions of your body’s stress response control center—adrenal glands release hormones in response to stress or excitement, regulate energy and metabolism, manage blood pressure, support immune response, and more.
Supported by a subsequent seed grand and the UGA Arts Collaborative, this project expanded to explore how art and science intersect to create new perspectives across disciplines.
