https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9MfXTVCE1A&t=9s Students immerse themselves in the 3D virtual reality space of plant cell where they can watch live defenses of a plant affected by a fungal pathogen attack on its leaf. The animation lasts about 12 minutes and is accompanied by a detailed description.
The lecturer will guide students through the virtual world of plant cells with its specifics, including the basics of plant pathophysiology. The seminar is suitable for secondary school students as a support and extension of the teaching of cell biology.
Basic knowledge of cell composition, organelles and transcription and translation processes is expected. The project was sponsored by Amgen and King Baudouin Foundation United States (KBFUS).
