CSynth at “Super Science Saturday: The Science Behind the Headlines”

November 26, 2016

On a late November Saturday, the CSynth team participated in “Super Science Saturday: The Science Behind the Headlines” at the Oxford University Museum of Natural History (www.oum.ox.ac.uk), demonstrating activities designed to showcase some of the incredible research going on in Oxford.

Steve Taylor and a team from the Higgs/Hughes lab demonstrated their CSynth software, first exhibited at New Scientist Live in September. Using a huge touchscreen, the team showed how CSynth allows users to visualise and interact with genomics data in three dimensions.
