Introduction to Scientific Illustration

What makes an effective scientific illustration? You have likely seen scientific illustrations in many places, including textbooks, models in museums, or even that poster at the doctor’s office showing what your eye looks like. Scientific illustrations are widely used in research and review articles to inform experts in the field, but they also facilitate interdisciplinary communication and engage a wider audience.
