Structures Frozen Mid-Reaction Screensaver

The Structures Frozen Mid-Reaction screensaver shows newly deposited cryo-EM structures from EMBL-EBI's Electron Microscopy Data Bank, key-less. Cryo-EM won a Nobel Prize for letting biology see molecules that would never crystallise, and this is where the resulting maps land. It's free, runs in your browser, and ESC exits.
