Exciting News

The negative news for the start:

Unfortunately, my entry for the ”International Science & Engineering Visualization Challenge’ is not among the winners. Here are the 2012 winners. However, a huge “Thank You” to all who supported me!

Now the positive ones:

@CristyGelling interviewed me for ASBMS Today, and out came a great article: http://www.asbmb.org/asbmbtoday/asbmbtoday_article.aspx?id=32336

‘Close Your Eyes And Imagine A Protein. See Anything? A Housefly, Maybe?‘ – a gorgeous article by Robert Krulwich (for NPR) sprinkled with my drawings.

About Protein Art

In this blog I would like to share my pictures which are inspired by proteins.

Proteins are molecules essential for every living organism. Not a single cell could exist without proteins. They represent long chains composed of amino acids. These chains fold into three-dimensional structures. The 3D structure of a protein is the template for my drawings.

I vary and rotate the three-dimensional protein image by means of a special computer software until an interesting shape appears. Subsequently, I color and design the produced snapshot so that the image I saw becomes obvious to the viewer.

My goal is not only to present my drawings. I also attempt to provide my readers with some information about proteins. I prefer to do so in an informal and hopefully humorous way.
