The Royal Society Summer Science Exhibition is one of the biggest science festivals in the UK, attracting thousands of visitors every year. Our exhibit demonstrating the CSynth software will form one of 22 exhibits from Universities across the country. In our interactive demonstration we’ll take visitors on a journey to unravel how mistakes in a 3 billion letter DNA code can potentially have a huge impact on how cells work within the human body.

Using virtual reality technology, visitors will be able to use CSynth to delve inside a cell and see first-hand how the DNA molecule folds and bends. They’ll get a glimpse of how changes in this structure can alter DNA function and put people at increased risk of certain diseases. To get a taste of what will be in store, you can read more about last year’s exhibition:
