Animated flag via OpenGL

Animated flag of the Fresh Water Pirates

OpenGL and the GL Shading Language can be used to create realistic graphic animations. In this example I've used a quad mesh and bound a 2 dimensional texture (image) to it. (© Fresh Water  Pirates ). A time-dependent sinus function modifies and updates the mesh coordinates every 0.05 seconds. The vertex normals are calculated for every update. Lighting effects are computed on the GPU

My poster for MUSC HCC Retreat event

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC, also called malignant hepatoma) is the most common type of  liver cancer. This Thursday afternoon, MUSC hosts a special event for selected HCC investigators which will present their clinical/translational research in both oral and poster format. I am proud to participate with my poster "Patient-specific models for radiofrequency ablation".
