study at top U.S. universities for
science, engineering and technology.
Panelists included several scientists
and artists who spoke on topics
including bio-hacking to preventing
consumerism through shock therapy.
In addition to a visit to the UCLA
Art | Sci Center & Lab, the Fulbright
recipients participated in lectures,
panel discussions and site workshops.
