- Janet Iwasa's Hook
- Lets look closer
- Janet Iwasa's Job
- Janet Iwasa's Co-workers
- She lives in Utah,a place known for having some of the most interesting and intricate natural landscapes on this planet. She loves observing the natural world, but is much more interested in its smaller scale.
- Janet Iwasa's Collabaration
- Create this
- She is a molecular animator, and works with other researchersto create visualizations of molecules that are so small,they're essentially invisible.
- Janet Iwasa Demonstrates Immune Cell.
- She works with scientists that work to understand molecular processes.To do this, they carry out a series of experimentsthat each can be used to come up with a hypothesis,a story, essentially, of how a molecule might work.
- Janet Iwasa explains CRISPR
- My job is to take these ideas and turn them into an animation. These animations can be incredibly useful for researchersto communicate their ideas of how these molecules work.
- While Janet Iwasa demonstrates an immune cell, she informs us that these kinds of cells need to go crawling around in our bodiesin order to find invaders like pathogenic bacteria.
- She informs us that scientists are now able to use protein machinesto edit genomes.CRISPR takes advantage of a protein known as Cas9,which can be engineered to recognize and cuta very specific sequence of DNA.
