“Decoding Plant Genomes” book

Artist, the character in the story, narrates my experience at Cold Spring Harbor Lab (CSHL) as the Celia & Wally Gilbert Artist-in-Residence. You can read more about the CSHL artist residency program here.

I received the award to make a book about the research by CSHL scientists engineering plants to adapt to climate change. I interviewed the plant biologists and geneticists and photographed the experiments in the greenhouse to write and illustrate this book. That’s me in the photo holding my book just hot off the press.

Kudos from readers:

“I love the work you’re doing and I think making science more palatable and accessible is super valuable in this current moment. With such a breadth of knowledge as well as an abundance of misinformation and problematic narratives, speaking directly with the people involved in the work is necessary.” — Blaine Fitzgerald, Greenhouse Research Manager, CSHL Lippman Lab

“I’m reading your book and can’t put it down. I’m learning so much!” — Elizabeth L. Watson, author of “Grounds for Knowledge,” a guide to CSHL landscapes and buildings"Decoding Plant Genomes" is a book written and illustrated by Lynn Fellman.The climate is raging. Too much rain or not enough, fiery hot then furiously cold, our planet is struggling. Especially plants, and we depend on them for food. Are there humans acting fast to help plants adapt?

Meet the Cold Spring Harbor Lab plant biologists working at top speed—decoding and editing plant genomes to withstand climate change.

What is decoding? (Hint: sequencing and analyzing DNA data). How do scientists engineer genomes? (Hint: with gene editing tools like CRISPR). Are you curious to know more and learn what you can do?

Scientists can’t save the plants alone. We need to be part of the solution by becoming genome-literate citizens. Follow a person named Artist (Lynn Fellman’s avatar) on this true-story adventure, and you’ll be a powerful genome-literate citizen for a sustainable future.
