Visual communication is a powerful tool for researchers, enhancing their expertise and strengthening their ability to connect with potential collaborators and investors.
By distilling complex research into clear, impactful visuals or accurately illustrating methods and processes, researchers can significantly boost their chances of making a meaningful impact.
This page features images created by DHCRC emerging leaders that highlight key aspects of their research and insights. These visuals are the outcomes of a short course on “Visual Communication,” offered by DHCRC in collaboration with the scientific visual communication specialists at Graphics et al.
