Dr. Lue is one of the pioneers of molecular animation, a rapidly growing field that seeks to bring the power of cinema to biology. Building on decades of research and mountains of data ...
2. Use an animation to show students a molecule and have them use their Snap Cubes to make a model of the molecule. Show the Animation Using Snap Cubes to make Atoms and Molecules. Click on “Water” ...
And so I wrote into the grant that I needed to go to Hollywood and learn the best animation software I could learn. The things that a lot of cell biologists and molecular biologists study are ...
Where does the DNA go? Is it a big molecule or a small one? Fortunately a group has created a 3D animation of the process that shows it at the molecular level. You can watch the animation ...
Thanks to data visualization expert Janet Iwasa there’s a whole collection of molecular animations to help us see what our eyes can’t. Iwasa is a research assistant professor of biochemistry ...
These animations incorporate actual measurements of molecular structure and movement, and therefore depict their authentic function and process. Together with his team at Harvard, Gael creates ...
Lue is particularly proud of a survey showing that the molecular animations are used in 78 percent of high schools, a finding that he says shows the animations enable students to think about ...
An animation shows how attaching molecular anvils (gray cages) to softer molecules (red and yellow balls) distributes the pressure from a bigger diamond anvil unevenly, so chemical bonds bend and ...
