Art meets science at San Diego International Airport

More than 4,000 people work in the life science industries in and around San Diego, conducting research and figuring out ways to cure diseases and help save the environment.

We may not be able to understand exactly what they do or how they do it, but an exhibition at San Diego International Airport (SAN) offers a colorful, artsy, and highly magnified peek inside.

Here are a few samples:
