LMB Seminar: Blending Proteins: Democratising Access to Beautiful Molecular Landscapes

If you have a question about this talk, please contact Scientific Meetings Co-ordinator .

Structural biology is filled with endlessly captivating and complex protein structures. While this has traditionally been the realm of dedicated molecular graphics software such as PyMol, ChimeraX and VMD , graphical fidelity is not the focus of these programs which limits the potential for visualising protein structures in all their glory.

I will be presenting my journey through molecular visualisation, in a quest to improve not only graphical quality of my experimental data, but also improve the ability of these visualisations to communicate complex biological topics. This culminated in the creation of the add-on Molecular Nodes for the industry-leading free and open-source 3D modelling program Blender. This has led to a revolution in the ability of structural biologists all over the world to create compelling visualisations and complex animations, grounded in the underlying scientific data that we generate.
