LITTLE ROCK – Photographs of flowers by Grazyna Nowak, Ph.D., an assistant professor in the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences in the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) College of Pharmacy, will be on display through Oct. 31 on the second-floor gallery of the UAMS Library. The Arts of UAMS exhibit, “Flowers,” is free and open to the public. For library hours, call (501) 686-5980. Nowak received her master’s of science degree in biochemistry from the University of Poznan in Poznan, Poland, and her Ph.D. in physiology from Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland. Nowak said she has always been fascinated by flowers ever since she was young. “When I look at the very first photographs of me taken by my parents, I see a little girl sitting in the grass and picking flowers,” she said. “I still remember the excitement of the first warm days of spring when I looked for the first flower of the year.” Nowak said she combined her passion for flowers with her photography skills to create the photographs in the exhibit. “Visiting various gardens in the United States has been one of the greatest pleasures during my private and business trips,” she said. “I always find time for this and never leave without a couple of good pictures, regardless of how small the garden is.” UAMS is the state’s only comprehensive academic health center, with five colleges, a graduate school, a medical center, five centers of excellence and a statewide network of regional centers. UAMS has about 2,170 students and 650 residents and is the state’s largest public employer with almost 9,000 employees. UAMS and its affiliates have an economic impact in Arkansas of about$3.8 billion a year. UAMS centers of excellence are the Arkansas Cancer Research Center, Harvey and Bernice Jones Eye Institute, Donald W. Reynolds Center on Aging, Myeloma Institute for Research and Therapy and Jackson T. Stephens Spine and Neurosciences Institute.
