How do you make an animated film about proteins as visually interesting as a Lord of the Rings mob?

Molecular biologist Janet Iwasa told us how she went to Hollywood, learned the tricks of the trade, and now retools them to make the molecular world jump off the screen in her films.

Janet Iwasa got her PhD in Molecular Biology at the University of California, San Francisco and is now a Research Assistant Professor at the Univeristy of Utah. She's also an award-winning animator and illustrator who brings biological research to life in her amazing animations. Not satisfied to do all the animating herself, Janet has also developed a sreamlined animation application that can be used by other biologists to share their research with the world.
