Dr Elaine Emmerson and artist Emily Fong describe their collaborative sci-art project G-Lands: An out of body experience. Elaine leads a research group searching for ways to repair salivary glands following radiotherapy treatment for cancer. Emily shows some of her drawings and describes how she is using drawing and sculpture to bring the science to the public and her hope that this project will create a dialogue between scientists, clinicians, patients and the public.
