Arkitek Visualizes Stem Cells For Riken CDB
This project was created for Riken’s Center for Developmental Biology (CDB), following a previous collaboration illustrating cadherin function in a 3D environment. Regarding working with Arkitek, Riken CDB’s Doug Sipp comments, "For a small company to have such a deep mastery of both sophisticated computer graphics technology and fundamental concepts of molecular and cell biology is rare indeed. But more than that, it is the eagerness and the blend of intensity, curiosity and fun with which they attack the many questions and challenges that inevitably arise during the production process that sets them apart."
As with the cadherins project, the stem cell animation is divided into multiple segments, detailing the origin and function of both adult and embryonic stem cells, as well as potential applications for their unmatched restorative abilities.
Arkitek CEO, Beth Anderson asserts, "Our team spent innumerable man hours integrating scientific research into the animations in order to clearly depict how these cells work. Arkitek sees this effort as having high scientific and social value."
