Computer visualisations of viruses, topographical maps, interactive visualisations of viruses, and protein data bank files.
 
Details of a programme to investigate the impact of technologies on higher education and develop applications in support of the JISC strategy. Several reports are available online. Topics covered include visualisation, virtual and remote environments, cluster computing, collaborative and distance working, videoconferencing, use of IT to support the management of institutions, affordable provision of computers for students, presentation technologies, central timetabling by computer, electronic diaries, and use of a multi
purpose smart card.
 
Information about JWAVE, a visualisation and computational environment consisting of three components: the JWAVE Server, the JWAVE Client Development kit and PV
WAVE. Can be used to create graphic and numeric visualization applications written in Java.
 
The Whole Frog project is intended to introduce the concepts of computer based 3D visualisation and to demonstrate the power of whole body, 3D imaging of anatomy as a curriculum tool. It aims to offer biology students the ability to explore the anatomy of a frog and visualize the anatomical structures of the intact animal.by using data from high resolution MRI imaging, mechanical sectioning, 3D surface and volume rendering.
 
An archive of online technical reports on graphics and visualisation, plus illustrations from current projects such as the Virtual Gorilla project.
 
Project which aims to provide teachers and students with online resources specially designed to support project
based inquiry.
