Peterson, Celeste N.; Tavana, Sara Z.; Akinleye, Olukemi P.; Johnson, Walter H.; Berkmen, Melanie B. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2020
Biology and biochemistry students must learn to visualize and comprehend the complex three-dimensional (3D) structures of macromolecules such as proteins or DNA. However, most tools available for teaching biomolecular structures typically operate in two dimensions. Here, we present protocols and pedagogical approaches for using immersive augmented…
