We're always suckers for a good art/science mashup, so perhaps it's no surprise that we're feeling pretty good about today's release of the 2010 International Science and Engineering Visualization Challenge winners. This year's winning entries included
the most detailed 3-D model of the HIV virus ever made (above), a sweeping infographic primer on the many ways fungi impact our lives, and a non-interactive media project that tracked 3,000 pieces of garbage from their origins in Seattle to destinations across the U.S. For More Details visit http://www.aaas.org/
