UnityMol: Interactive scientific visualization for integrative biology

A broad challenge facing scientists today is the availability of huge amounts of data from various sources. Computers are required to store, analyze, explore and represent these data in order to extract useful information. With UnityMol, we pursue the ambitious goal to create an interactive virtual laboratory enabling researchers in biology to visualize biomolecular systems, run simulations and interact with physical models and data. Visual effects can enrich the dynamic and immersive aspects. Ultimately, we want to combine an appealing visual feedback already in place with a set of analysis features to extract information about properties of the fascinating biomolecular systems under study.
