My brilliant scientist husband (yes, I am extremely biased) made the cover of Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews (MMBR). Well, technically his really cool image of Burkholderia mallei made the cover (it was originally published in the Journal of Bacteriology 187:7857-7862, and can also be seen in his Photo Gallery).Why am I, the artist wife, so interested in an image of a microscopic creepy crawly? 'Cause one day I said to him "there's always cool images of microorganisms on the cover of scientific journals - why aren't there any of your organism?". His response was to send me his newly taken image. I immediately thought it looked like a work of science fiction art and fell in love (with my husband) all over again. He too is an artist, just in a different arena!
