SPIKE PROTEIN
The SARS-CoV-2 spike proteins play a central role in infecting our human cells, and it is a target for both antibodies and vaccine designers. With this data set users can study a real Spike protein from the SARS-CoV-2 virus scanned using cutting edge CRYO Electron Microscope technology.
Data by SciLife Lab at The Karolinska Institute, Stockholm
SARS-COV-2 VIRUS
To unmask the virus and making it visible to our human eyes, visitors can cut into a SARS-CoV-2 virus particle and study its structure and viral properties. In a world where millions of people live under the threat of COVID-19 it is of vital importance
to gain a better understanding of how the virus actually works, in search for a cure.

LUNGS
These CT scans from a pair of COVID-19 infected lungs allow visitors to experience what kind of visual and physical damage that the SARS-COV-2 virus can do and what it looks like on the inside of our bodies. Therefor better understand the importance of keeping each other safe and help stop the spreading.
Data by Dr. Altair Costa, Thoracic surgeon at the Federal University Hospital in Sâo Paolo, Brazil, and Norman Gellada, Imaging specialist, 3D and advanced visualization at Cedars-Sinai hospital in Los Angeles.
