CRC 1182 Origin and Function of Meta Organisms

RESEARCH FIELD

TYPE

Interactive Poster, Animation

YEAR

2018

DESCRIPTION
The interactive Scientific Poster „Digital Meta“ is a multitouch exhibit that showcases the complex scientific contents of host-microbe interactions. Introducing five different model organisms, users are invited to explore the coexistence of bacterial symbionts with their multicelluar hosts on a 65 inch multitouch display. By choosing different paths through the multi-layered content, each user can create his or her individual access to the world of metaorganism research.

While novel technologies of analysis have enabled scientists to look into the underlying molecular and genetic mechanisms, the realm of host-microbe interactions stays entirely invisible to the human eye. For the first time, microbiome researchers of CRC 1182 together with the Science Communication Lab have now made an effort to visualize the interactions within the metaorganism in depth.

For the first time, we bring our interactive scientific posters also on mobile devices. This is perfect to show your scientific research at conferences abroad or to share and explain your topics to a smaller group of colleagues. For us at Science Communication Lab, this flexibility in different media devices is a milestone in the development of exciting scientific communication formats.
