dc.description.abstractThe main objective of this thesis project is to visually communicate, through the use of Adobe Flash animations, the process the immune system uses in eliminating Trichinella Spiralis from the body. The use of animation, along with the Immunology syllabus text, will possibly increase the medical students' understanding of the subject. Medical students evaluated the animation, which detailed the immune systems' anatomical and cellular reaction to Trichinella spiralis. These students use the animation as a study guide and review. These evaluations determine the usefulness of the animation in the Immunology course. This thesis project documents the scientific research on Trichinella spiralisin the immune system, the process of storyboarding, design, and audio production used to create the animation.en
