“It’s a significant achievement for our animation students and is a global outreach effort that far exceeds any other URI-based YouTube videos,” Bongsup Cho, professor of medicinal chemistry and associate dean for research and graduate programs in the College of Pharmacy, said in a statement. Cho manages the YouTube page and 3D animation project.

The 3D animation and printing-technology program is funded through grants from the Provost’s Innovative Approaches using Technology and the Champlin Foundations. •
