POMT is...
- meant to be a general introduction to the science behind cells and genetics
- an ever-expanding visual guide to the microcosm (More content is constantly in the works)
- a relatively seamless zooming experience that emphasizes the interconnectedness of life's processes at different levels of magnification
- originally developed to supplement late middle school to early high school introductory science curriculum
Produced with funding from the National Science Foundation, Powers of Minus Ten is perfect for a general introduction to the structures of the cell and key molecular processes.
The iPad version includes instructional mini-games.
Topics covered include: mitosis, transcription, translation, cell parts, and DNA replication.

I just bought this game and it does not even work. I get a picture of a door, with the word " green door". Then the screen went black. I did not even get to play the game. If there are still glitch in the game please fix it. I want my money back!
AMAZING!

Too simple

Only show some cells, and has not good animations. I don't recommend. I want my money back, please.
Beautiful

Great graphics and exploratory interface, long load time is worth it for the cool zooming navigation. This would have been really useful in high school biology :)
Great educational tool

This is a great way to review the workings of the cell and understand the different processes at hand. Looking forward to future updates!

Only four zoom levels and a couple dozen captions... Wikipedia has better pictures...
Awesome!!

Finally, biological elements and processes in words that I can actually understand, and interactive pics!! Thank you! This is great. In the next version, I would like to see more detail in the descriptions of things, although I know how hard it is to condense this material without it getting confusing. maybe with additional pictures or the ability to zoom in on other items and processes (for example, the process of DNA transcription and translation). Super awesome! :)
Does not function

This app freezes and does not operate AT ALL! It would be really cool, but it is nothing but frustrating and disappointing. I want my money back!
Awesome app

Im a microbiologist undergraduate student and this app is awesome I love it. I hope a new update with other things to zoom like viruses, bacterias, and molecules
My 10 year old loves it.

Great way to introduce your kid to magnification and better living through microscopy. The graphics are beautiful and visually intriguing. Cookies. DIamonds. Concrete. Whatever's next will be welcome.
