This workshop deals with the visualization of scientific ideas and projects. Much like the traditional abstract as a written summary of a journal article, the graphical abstract has made its way into scientific publications as a visual summary. Beyond that specific purpose, it actually can be widely used in a variety of contexts, be it in a thesis defense, a science communication talk or a poster. No matter what the context, a graphical abstract captures the viewer’s attention, explains the science, and will be remembered. However, visualizing complex scientific ideas can be tricky. How do you organize the content? How can abstract concepts be visualized? This course leads you through the different steps of creating a graphical abstract and includes an introduction to vector graphics.
The workshop is an offer for members of the Graduate Center for Doctoral Students.
