DNA Barcoding

I decided to combine 2 things I'm doing now and make a theoretical logo for the bio project I'm doing. I'm working in Dr. Keith Crandall's evolutionary biology lab on a DNA Barcoding project. We are building a micro array that will aid in identifying primer sites for the CO1 gene across animalia. More simply, we're aiding in the quest to identify animals by their dna alone.

Because I've been working a lot on the project lately (downloading and aligning thousands of sequences from online databases), I thought it would be cool to make a logo for DNA Barcoding. This is how it came out:




I found this really cool barcode font, and the rest it just shapes and effects.
