BBDO NY Promotes ‘MSSNG’ for Autism Speaks

BBDO New York created an integrated campaign for Autism Speaks to promote MSSNG, “a new open-source research platform that will house the world’s largest database of sequenced genomic information on people with autism.”

On Wednesday BBDO New York and Autism Speaks teamed up to host “The MSSNG Lab,” an exhibit of fine art by photographer and biochemist Linden Gledhill, who created “10,000 one-of-a-kind DNA posters, each available for purchase to directly fund the 10,000 DNA sequences needed for the MSSNG project.” Once complete, the MSSNG project plans to host the data on the Google Cloud platform, where it will be available to scientists around the world. BBDO was responsible forbranding and staging the event and creating materials for purchase, including posters and coffee-table books.

“MSSNG has the potential to change the future for millions of people with autism, and this event is designed to heighten its awareness,” said Liz Feld, president of Autism Speaks. “We thank BBDO for helping to brand the program and raise awareness of this cutting-edge project among a vast and diverse audience.”

Butterfly Wings Patterns

Fasciné par les choses infiniment petites, le photographe Linden Gledhill a fait une série d’ailes de papillons prises en macro intitulée « Butterfly Wings ». La série montre l’esthétisme des motifs que l’on trouve sur les ailes de certaines espèces de papillons et qui ressemblent parfois à des pétales de fleurs.
