Project Description
Rabies is a familiar and fascinating virus. The most well-known facts about rabies are the symptoms of foaming at the mouth, hydrophobicity, erratic behavior, and biting, as well as its lethality once symptoms appear. Less well known is how rabies itself incubates in its host and then multiplies, utilizing its own machinery as well as the host cell’s. This poster draws the viewer in with an engaging and dynamic visualization of a familiar virus, and educates them about the less familiar process of rabies replication.
