Governor Bob Taft, on a tour of northwest Ohio,
stopped at Bowling Green State University, specifically to visit the Center
for Photochemical Sciences. Taft made the visit as part of a tour
to promote a new State of Ohio initiative called the Third Frontier, which
will provide $1.6 billion to promote research and hi-tech industry in Ohio.
Dr. D. C. Neckers, along with Sandra
Knudsen, Associate Curator of Ancient Art at the Toledo Museum of Art,
explains to Governor Bob Taft how the Center for Photochemical Sciences
is shedding light on the past using technology of the future. |
Skulls were recreated from CT scans
of two Toledo Museum of Art mummies using stereolithography. The
faces were then recreated by a forensics pathologist to resemble what they
might have looked like. |
