Rendering Life Molecular : Models, Modelers, and Excitable Matter /

Show other versions (1)

Natasha Myers shows in this ethnography how scientists who build three-dimensional models of proteins use their senses and bodies to create, represent, and evaluate otherwise imperceptible molecules. These modelers often consider matter to be made up of living, moving, and sometimes breathing entiti...
