I had the pleasure this June of presenting my class’s bioinformatics project to attendees of this year’s SEA-PHAGES symposium. Our project was rather abstract, relying on frequency analysis of DNA n-tuples to infer relationships between genomes, and many of the symposium attendees had minimal experience with the specifics of what we were presenting. It was a unique opportunity to see if a visual explanation would help convey what’s a rather technical and non-intuitive topic.
