Visualizing the Flagellum with Computer Animation

Previously, I drew attention to an essay I published online regarding the engineering marvel of the bacterial flagellar motor. Although this animation does not capture the sheer complexity of the flagellum, it does offer an edifying taste of the intricacy of the nano-machine’s self-assembly and function.
