Since she was young, Antonia Gronberg has always been passionate about science and dancing. When she heard about Science's "Dance Your Ph.D." competition, she knew she just had to join. For someone who loves science and dancing, it was a perfect competition.
Groneberg's performance, which is based on her doctoral thesis, tells how the motions of groups of zebrafish larvae affected the brain development and behavior of each one of them. The performance video was created with the help of Groneberg's colleagues, dance students, and children of the adult participants.
Groneberg's zebrafish dance won the social science category of the competition as well as the overall prize.
Here is Groneberg's dance.
