<\/div>\n
Application for Interdisciplinary Residency<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Coalesce: Center for Biological Arts (www.buffalo.edu\/gem\/coalesce) is a hybrid studio laboratory dedicated to enabling hands-on<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
creative engagement with the tools and technologies of the life sciences, and is a major facet of the Genome, Environment and<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Microbiome Community of Excellence at the University at Buffalo. Coalesce is currently accepting proposals for Biological<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Art residencies. We accept 4\u20135 residents per academic year. A residency is active for the entire year, however actual periods in<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
residence will vary and should be mutually agreed upon by Coalesce and the artist. We suggest a minimum of one month in<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
planned residence and we encourage residents to stay for two or three months as residents will likely be learning many new<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
techniques and biological experiments often require long incubation periods. Each resident will receive technical support,<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
access to laboratory equipment, and up to $1500 in laboratory materials and supplies.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Access to Laboratory Equipment<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In the Coalesce lab you will have access to a sterile hood, fume hoods, an anaerobic glove-box, a gassing station, a<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
thermocycler, an autoclave, incubators, water baths, electrophoresis equipment, DNA transilluminators, a digital imaging<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
station, a bioinformatics station, centrifuges, dissecting and compound microscopes, and other equipment.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The University at Buffalo is a premiere research institution that contains many facilities across the arts and sciences for imaging,<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
analysis, processing, visualization, machining and fabrication of all kinds with which researchers are encouraged to engage. Coalesce<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
residents will have access to many of these services, including Sanger and next-generation sequencing, spectroscopy, electron,<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
confocal and fluorescence microscopy, and many others.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Structure of Residency<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u2022 Each resident artist will pair with a scientist at the University at Buffalo who will advise broadly on a strategy to complete the<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
work and assist with the process of ensuring environmental health and safety compliance.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u2022 Residents will have access to the research laboratory<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u2022 Coalesce staff will provide training, assistance and consultation.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u2022 Residents will have access to a range of university services for the duration of their residency.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u2022 Residents will present their work (or a related topic) at least once during Coalesce monthly discussion forums.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u2022 Residents should list Coalesce and GEM in their project credits. For example: \u201cThis project supported by Coalesce: Center<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
for Biological Art, and the Genome, Environment and Microbiome Community of Excellence, University at Buffalo.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Selection Criteria<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Quality and originality of proposal. Feasibility of project. Applicability to our community strengths: genomics, environment<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
and microbiome.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Application Procedure<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
As part of your submission, please prepare a single PDF file containing the following:<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
2. An artist statement including links to previous projects and their relationships to the proposed project (500 words.)<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
3. A description of the specific components of the project to take place at Coalesce and a rough timeline. Be sure to<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
specify if activities are to take place primarily in the Fall or Spring academic semester.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
4. A two-page curriculum vitae.<\/div>\n
