The Journey to the Centre of the cell takes users on a journey to the microscopic world. Explore the surface and interior of a cancer cell, exploring and learning about cellular anatomy and processes.
## About This Game
Using data from high-resolution electron microscopy we have reconstructed a
human breast cancer cell in 3D VR in order to better visualise mechanisms of
nanoparticle internalisation and trafficking. These virtual environments allow
users to walk on – or inside, a cancer cell, exploring and learning about
cellular anatomy and processes.
REQUIRES STEAM VR
This is a VR experience, designed for the HTC Vive but also compatible with
other SteamVR headsets (eg. Oculus Rift)
This is a collaborative project developed by the 3d Visualisation Aesthetics
Lab (3DVAL) at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) Art and Design, funded
by the Australian Research Council (ARC) Centre of Excellence in Bio-Nano
Science and Technology (CBNS).
