infohackit: helping scientists to communicate important messages through design
Why is visual communication important in the scientific field?
It’s a way of telling people about your research methods and results, and in doing so, starting the process of somehow changing the world with your science. Most of our clients are researching environmental, biological, and health sciences, so we’re looking at topics like climate change, biodiversity, global health. Not many people outside of science know that scientists are expected to create posters, data visualisations and infographics for audiences as diverse as school children and policymakers.
