- With the right computer program, proteins become pleasant music.
- There are many surprising analogies between proteins, the basic building blocks of life, and musical notation.
- These analogies can be used not only to help advance research but also to make the complexity of proteins accessible to the public.
- We're computational biologists who believe that hearing the sound of life at the molecular level could help inspire people to learn more about biology and the computational sciences.
- While creating music based on proteins isn't new, different musical styles and composition algorithms had yet to be explored.
