Genome3D

Last summer, I had the pleasure of working for Dr. Jijun Tang of the department of computer science at the University of South Carolina for my summer research. The title of my research was A Viewer Model Framework for Visualizing Multi-scale Three-dimensional Genome with Online Integration.

I worked on a program called Genome3D over a six-week period. The program, coded in C#, was designed to render, in 3D, genome models that are stored in XML format.

The following are some screenshots of the program in action:
