Ten Ways to Use Your Science Visuals

    How to get the most out of your investment in original science graphics

    We’ve spoken before about the value of science visuals, particularly when you hire a professional science communicator. However, crafting a custom science graphic IS an investment.

    We’d argue that even if you’re in need of one clear scientific image, investing in professional science visuals is worth it with the significant increase in understanding and attention that visuals garner.  Yet, there are so many ways to use visuals across different media types to maximize their value. Whether you’re a university scientist or a tech company engineer,  here are some ideas to make the most of your visuals.

    Here are ten ways to make better use of your science visuals:

    1. Social media – Posts
      Celebrate your publications and get more people looking at your results. Use science visuals in your social media posts to highlight new publications and engage your audience.
    2. Social media headers
      Enhance your social media profile with custom headers that reflect your research focus and science brand.
    3. Publications – Magazine/Cover art
      Capture readers’ attention with cover art that visualizes your company’s mission. Submit cover art for journals to gain the attention your research deserves.
    4. Review article features
      Make your review articles stand out with graphics that summarize complex concepts with visual clarity.
    5. Website header images
      Make an impact with your viewers and use science visuals as header images on your website. Incorporate these images into your web design for a cohesive, customized look to make you stand out.
    6. Website explanatory graphics
      Improve understanding of scientific concepts by incorporating clear and informative graphics on your website.
    1. Grant proposals
      Strengthen your grant proposals with visuals that effectively communicate research goals to ensure reviewers understand the significance of your research.
    2. Slide deck cover slide
      Start your presentations with an intro slide that grabs your audience’s attention! A powerful visual sets the tone for your presentation and makes a great first impression with your audience.
    3. Presentation design elements
      Make your slide deck stand out with uniquely designed slides. Incorporating scientific visual elements throughout your presentation can drive home your message.biotech branding images by SayoStudio
    4. Conference posters and flyers
      Attract poster viewers and boost engagement at conferences with well designed posters using science visuals. Using an impactful graphic as the header image in posters or flyer handouts is one easy way to incorporate your custom science visuals in these designs.

    Science Visuals Everywhere!

    By using science visuals across multiple platforms, scientists, science companies, and researchers can ensure their investment in custom graphics has the broadest and most impactful reach.

    Incorporating science visuals into your communication strategy is not just about enhancing the aesthetics of your materials; it’s about amplifying the impact and clarity of your message.

    Ask most science illustrators, animators and designers and they’ll tell you how disappointing it is to craft a visual and not see it used. You don’t need to feel bad for us ;-). But take this as a reminder that we all want you to get the most out of should be getting the most of your custom visuals.
