Microbial life flourishes all around us and is invisible to the naked eye. Within this microscopic world are intracellular bacteria, including Salmonella enterica, Chlamydia trachomatis, and Orientia tsutsugamushi. By hijacking eukaryotic host cellular machinery and avoiding detection, these bacteria orchestrate their own survival and replication within host cells. The intricate nature of these interactions are usually communicated through images and graphical presentations, thereby excluding the low vision and blind communities. By taking part in the Sensory Science Exhibition, held at St Catharine’s College, University of Cambridge as part of the Cambridge Festival on the 18th March 2024, we sought to address this problem through creating a 3D mammalian cell and model bacteria. The aim of this tactile display was to guide participants through key aspects of intracellular bacterial life cycles such as host cell entry, S. enterica type three secretion system (T3SS) protein secretion, O. tsutsugamushi trafficking along microtubules, and C. trachomatis replication within an inclusion. We hope our multisensory conceptualisation of the intriguing lives of intracellular bacteria provided inclusive science communication to the low vision and blind communities.
