Last month, Ian and I travelled to Houston for the Systems of Sustainability Seminar (SOS) hosted by the University of Houston’s Cynthia Woods Mitchell Center for the Arts and Blaffer Gallery. Â
Natalie Jeremijenko, of the Environmental Health Clinic, was a notable speaker. Â Natalie is an artist with a background in biochemistry, physics, neuroscience and precision engineering. Â She directs the xDesign Environmental Health Clinic, a clinic that prescribes action instead of medicine, and approaches health from an understanding of “its dependence on external local environments; rather than on the internal biology and genetic predispositions of an individual.” Â
