New breakthroughs in molecular science, and new descriptions of old concepts in molecular science.
Our new game is a two dimensional strategy game called Immune Defense. Seven kinds of white bloods cells can be bought and deployed in the never-ending, always-escalating war against 15 viral and bacterial pathogens.
Part 1 of Immune Defense to be released February 1,

So, we make a video game intended to teach students Immunology and cell biology. So we are obviously interested in the many ways that a creative media like video games, graphic design, song writing, story writing, and even music video can be used to present science effectively. And let is also remember that the process of writing that story is actually a rigorous course of education for the author.
