Description:
IOMedia, in collaboration with lntermed Media Inc, created this interactive presentation for Novartis. The presentation, geared toward physicians, explores the relationship among serotonin, an enzyme, its receptors in the gut, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The purpose of the presentation is to visually convey this complex yet fundamental mechanism, in hopes of creating new therapies for treatment of IBS. Extensive knowledge of the workings of the gastrointestinal system and its neural network was required in order to accurately depict the abstracted, microscopic spaces. All visual design, animation, compositing, editing, and interactive design were performed at IOMedia.
