Visual Guide to Human Stem Cells

Purpose

At the Allen Institute for Cell Science we are studying human stem cells and their internal structures. We wanted to provide visitors to allencell.org an entry point to explore the data and research we produce. ​The Visual Guide to Human Cells web page organizes information about human induced pluripotent stem cells into a curated collection of interactive models. You can rotate and zoom into 3D cells, each segmented from real data for each phase of mitosis, while learning more about individual cell structures and functions. 

Design

I worked with our UX designer who created an interactive prototype of the site.

Development

To create the 3D assets we wrote a Cinema4D script to create .obj and texture files. Read about it in detail here.
