Project Description
The challenge involved creating an animation that not only introduced Omega’s groundbreaking platform of epigenomic programming in a high-level scientific manner but also a relatively unfamiliar biological structure, known as the insulated genomic domain (IGD). One goal was to create awareness and understanding of what IGDs are, where they’re located (through a visual change in magnitudes of scale from cell-nucleus-chromosome/chromatin-IGD), and how different types of disruptions in them can contribute to gene under/overexpression and thus disease. The other goal was to introduce Omega’s ability to computationally map and identify specific IGD targets and to create Omega Epigenomic Controllers- their structure, function, and ultimate use for restoring IGD structures from diseased states.
