Project Visualizations

The real world happens in three dimensions and any technologies that help to recreate the full dimensions and interactivity of real life contribute to understanding and discovery. Presenting scientific data and other phenomena visually. These visualizations turn vast quantities of large-scale, time-dependent data into visual simulations of complicated processes, such as the interactions of proteins that play a role in causing disease or the changes in atmospheric conditions over time as a tropical storm develops into a hurricane.

Overview
For melanoma research, a high-resolution visualization was created to allow protein to protein interaction networks in 3D. The 3D visualization will enable researchers to gain insights into DNA repair mechanisms and help melanoma research.

Overview
RENCI at NCSU created an animated, interactive visualization that displays the nitrate levels in groundwater over a period of time. The next stage is to enable the visualization to run at different speeds and angles so the data can be manipulated further.
