The ID in 3D team is hard at work animating our VR MPOX experience in @tvorium! Take a peek at the video to see MPOX attach to human cell surface receptors. Coming up next is our immune evasion scene, where viral proteins sequester human cytokines before they reach their target

Happy Valentine’s Day from the ID in 3D team! We hope our love for VR has been *infectious*! This month we’re giving you a sneak peek into our upcoming symposium with a look at one of our flyers.

FYI all. The app that @Dr_EEbel @lab_egan developed to SEE structural variation in @nanopore long reads is so cool that we had to use it to explore variations in copy number of resistance genes! check it out biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
How is 𝘗. 𝘧𝘢𝘭𝘤𝘪𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘶𝘮 SO GOOD at evading host immunity? In our new preprint, we use ultra-long @nanopore reads to discover extra-chromosomal alleles of antigenic 𝘷𝘢𝘳 genes in clonal malaria parasites, @Bernard_Y_Kim👑 @lab_egan @PetrovADmitri bit.ly/3Hy1nAD

Amazing to see more evidence of ecDNA in malaria parasites! Awesome work Emily and team.

Sending Dr. Shiwei Liu out into the world of research today. She completed her dissertation in Dec and will be starting a computational postdoc at IU. Congrats Shiwei- we are so proud of you... Watch out world!

What is texture and rigging? Texturing is a process that adds features to a 3D object to evoke a sense of touch, making it look more realistic. Rigging means building a skeleton that's used in movement. Spoiler alert: we’ll be rigging actin protein to make it bend and retract!

Did you know? According to the American College of Physicians, the biggest risk factor for infection is close physical contact with an infected person, through skin-to-skin transmission.

As November comes to a close, we're continuing to build our asset list in VR. Take a look below for a peek at an epithelial cell, the body’s first line of defense against infectious diseases. Stay tuned as we continue to build in Gravity Sketch and move into texture and rigging!
