senior capstone: CRISPR

My senior capstone covered a new genetic editing tool known as CRISPR (clustered, regularly, interspaced, short, palindromic, repeats). This assignment required that I use everything I had learned to coordinate, design, and present an entirely self-directed project. I created three animated posters to communicate with the public about this complex topic in a clear and simplified style. CRISPR could revolutionize our approach to disease treatment, however without understanding how it works, some are wary of it. The posters cover what CRISPR is, how it works, and why it is important. Each composition uses bright exciting colors and rounded organic shapes to portray CRISPR as a fun scientific discovery, as opposed to a scary medical procedure.
