You have got to see this video. Sakaue-Sawano et al. may have created the coolest molecular biology video I have ever seen. They developed a system of reporters to watch the cells transition between the different stages of the cell cycle. This is cool, but it is going to take a bit of explaining…
If you've ever put a pair of headphones in your pocket, you'll know how difficult it is to keep a long cord in a bundle without getting it hopelessly tangled and knotted. You'll also start to appreciate the monumental challenge that our cells face when packaging our DNA. At 2 metres in length, the…

Love how this has a cool modern 3D look to it but then has that old vintage sound full of cracks and pops!

I remember seeing something similar to this in a PBS documentary about DNA.
