- Its cell-cycle slider preserves the 23-of-24-hours interphase imbalance and displays elapsed time rather than hiding the distortion.
Field notes
The homepage describes models with real-scale measurements, selectable structures, camera bookmarks, and scripted tours. It says users can switch among lit, fluorescence, and electron views, which are presented as differing accounts of what is visible in a cell. The cell-cycle view keeps its time distortion legible by showing elapsed time; the Android app is currently described as being in closed testing.
