BioBlender

ATP Synthase (Molecular Nodes, Brady Johnston)

Inspiration

Extreme potential for foundation models to accelerate high-quality biological and scientific illustrations for common individuals without special effects or animating abilities

What it does

Uses GPT API to create high-quality biological illustrations of various macromolecules given prompts with various Blender add-ons

How we built it

Used GPT API and prompt engineered GPT model to properly innervate MolecularNode and other Blender Add-ons with GPTBlender to allow prompts to generate high-quality illustrations

Challenges we ran into

Adapting GPT API and prompt engineering GPTBlender to properly innervate MolecularNode and other Blender Add-ons

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Was able to integrate GPTBlender and MolecularNodes add-ons in blender to seamlessly produce macromolecules with only prompting

What we learned

Foundation models and NLP will be extremely effective for not only biological inquiry and treatment, but also in illustrating and communicating valuable topics by and for individuals with novice experience with working with such tools.
