My Virtual Reality Microscopy experience (developed at @IrsiCaixa) is finally playable. It uses the power of #VR to show how #microscopy works and just how small cells & viruses are. It is aimed at science festivals with a stand-alone release at later date youtu.be/Q6sdHp1T388
We're excited to announce the Atlas of Bacterial & Archaeal Cell Structure (cellstructureatlas.org), an open-access multimedia textbook that shows what's inside microbial cells like never before, featuring ~150 of our best cryotomograms and animations
A humble @BrilliantClub handbook turned into a uni pathways course @RISchools, to computing masterclasses @Ri_Science, to an award winning idea @nesta_uk and a wonderful opportunity to collaborate with the university partner @TeifLab. Can’t wait to see what happens next! ☺️
Researchers @Uni_of_Essex have been working with students from Claremont High School Academy to look at the chemistry behind disease related biological molecules, using computer simulations and Augmented Reality (AR) to help with visualisation. #PartnershipGrants#SummerScience
Poll: What will be the share of virtual meetings in all academic meetings after the COVID-19 pandemic?
*Meetings are defined as scientific conferences, seminars, workshops, schools, etc.

Is the scientific community ready for (more) #virtualreality meetings in the times of #Corona? There are great #VRtools out there, let's discover and use them! Read about my thoughts after a successful virtual @INC_COST MC meeting last week. ➡️bit.ly/2xfSLOA#ISAblog
Some thoughts how each of us can help:
1) Have RNA lab skills? Offer volunteering at local COVID testing centers!
2) No lab skills? Offer help at citizen volunteer groups (e.g. covidmutualaid.org)
3) In charge of seminars, conferences, etc? Do not cancel, make them virtual!
