<Title>Research Graphics Open House February 26!</Title>
<Tagline>Meet the new manager, Melissa Penley Cormier, M.F.A. '17</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <h5>
    <span>The College of
    Natural and Mathematical Sciences is pleased to formally announce the arrival
    of </span><span>Melissa Penley Cormier</span><span>, M.F.A. ‘17, <span>as the manager of </span></span><a href="https://researchgraphics.umbc.edu/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><span>Research Graphics</span></a><span>, a <a href="https://cnms.umbc.edu/core-facilities/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">core facility</a>
    within the college that </span><span>offers research-related
    printing, imaging, and graphic design services to the entire UMBC community.</span>
    </h5>
    
    <h5><span> </span></h5>
    
    <p><span>Ms. Cormier earned an M.F.A. from
    UMBC's Intermedia and Digital Arts program and a B.F.A. from Radford
    University. She most recently gained experience in the Department of Visual
    Arts as a professional staff program specialist, graduate program coordinator,
    and an adjunct instructor of drawing and visual concepts courses.<br>
    <br>
    Both artistically and professionally, Ms. Cormier actively collaborates across
    the disciplines of art and science to better inform her work and feed her
    enthusiasm. Her work was recently published in a collection by <em>Aperture</em> in <em>Seeing Science: How Photography Reveals the Universe</em> by Marvin
    Heiferman. In addition, she was recently asked to speak on a panel at Brilliant
    Baltimore about her collaborative works in </span><a href="https://thelightekphrastic.com/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><em><span>The Light Ekphrastic</span></em></a><span>, an online journal founded by UMBC's Jenny O'Grady, which pairs writers and artists together to
    create new works.</span></p>
    
    <p><span> </span></p>
    
    <p><span>Ms. Cormier is active in both the
    UMBC and broader Baltimore arts communities through participation in
    organizations such as the PSS Mentoring Program and the Program Advisory
    Committee (PAC) of <a href="http://www.mdartplace.org/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Maryland Art Place</a>. The PAC is comprised of nominated
    Maryland area artists and arts professionals who provide analyses and responses
    to proposals and annual exhibitions several times a year. The PAC is also responsible
    for advising the organization on contemporary art trends and best practices.<br>
    <br>
    Ms. Cormier’s experience with photographic processes and printing techniques,
    as well as her personal interest in nature and the sciences, makes her a great
    fit and enthusiastic resource to anyone in the wider UMBC community searching
    for expertise in imaging and design to support their research, promote their
    lab's mission, and explore visual projects.</span></p>
    
    <p><span> </span></p>
    
    <p><span>CNMS is pleased to offer a Research
    Graphics Open House for community members who would like to learn more about
    how Research Graphics can support their work.</span></p>
    
    <p><span> </span></p>
    
    <p><strong><span>Research Graphics Open House</span></strong></p>
    
    <p><strong><span>Wednesday, February 26, 12 – 1 p.m.</span></strong></p>
    
    <p><strong><span>Biological Sciences Building, Room 102</span></strong></p>
    
    <p><strong><span>Light refreshments will be served.</span></strong></p>
    
    <p><span> </span></p>
    
    <p>Ms. Cormier
    will also be offering an AOK Library Spotlight presentation on April 1 from
    noon to 1 p.m. She<span> can be reached at </span><a href="mailto:researchgraphics@umbc.edu" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><span>researchgraphics@umbc.edu</span></a><span> for any questions.</span></p>
