Stem cells. What are they anyway? What do they look like? And what can you do with them? Learn all about stem cells through artworks from the reNEW ARTxSCIENCE competition! 

reNEW is an international collaboration, in which researchers from Leiden University Medical Center, Copenhagen and Melbourne strive together to change the lives of patients with chronic diseases. Through their stem cell research, they are working on new treatments for diseases such as type 1 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and congenital muscular or immune disorders.

During their work, the scientists produce stunning works of art that tell the story of their stem cell research. The most beautiful works of art compete in the reNEW ARTxSCIENCE competition.

In this interactive session, we will take you into the world of this stem cell research through these artworks. Be amazed by this world: because stem cells not only offer a unique opportunity to cure people, but they are also very beautiful.

During this session, you can vote for your favorite artwork. By doing so, you will not only help our Leiden researchers to win the ARTxSCIENCE competition, but also have a chance to win several prizes yourself!
