The best scientific discovery is worthless if it is not well communicated. Scientific articles are one level of this communication. Figures, graphical abstracts, and graphs are another, and are an often underestimated level of communication. Visual representation of your science is a key tool to communicate your science in an intuitive way. Adobe Illustrator is one of the leading applications to create visually outstanding scientific illustrations.

Science is about communication. Communicating your ideas, your hypothesis, your data, your results and discoveries. Writing a paper is the most common way to communicate with the scientific community. However, writing a paper is not only about a catchy title and a well written manuscript. Good papers need good graphics. The figures in your paper play an important role in explaining your data and guiding the reader through your story, but more importantly they attract your audience’s attention, let them engage with it, and can be distributed to others.

A conference poster is much more than your latest data compressed into figures that are spread on an enormous white surface with text far too small. A poster is your billboard for the scientific world, telling your story with your data about your science. It helps you to engage, inform, and inspire your audience. An inspired and informed audience gives better feedback, helping you in return with your scientific work.
