Diffusion and Crowding Inside the Cell (within SystemsX project, 2011)
Visualisation of the simulated signal transduction process inside the cell, focusing on individual molecules and molecular crowding as well as providing a global scale view of the cell. The simulation model has been created by the Biomolecular Signaling and Control Group (BISON) at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETHZ) (now Bioinspired Communication Systems Lab at TU Darmstad).
Technology: The ScienceVisuals in-house ray tracing and simulation engine BioInspire, researched and developped by Dr. Pablo de Heras Ciechomski, was used to create models, animations, renderings and special effects. Music was specially composed for the movie. Simulation was provided by the BISON group of ETHZ.
