Why are diagrams always based on the male shape? This is the status quo effect: when we think about humans, we think men (unfortunately). When I design, I always try to include female shapes as well. So for this diagram on the Basics of Burn Care website I updated the outdated design, and included a female shape as well.

I'm preparing to give a full-day Graphical abstract workshop tomorrow and came across this beauty of a graphical abstract about heavy metal toxicity. 😅

Woon je in een omgeving waar op iedere straathoek fast-food te koop is? 🥐 🍕 🍟 Dan is jouw buurt zwaarder dan gemiddeld. Voor het PhD onderzoek van Carel-Peter van Erpecum ontwierp ik deze infographic om te laten zien hoe de omgeving een rol speelt. Dit is belangrijk, want in Nederland is het aantal volwassenen met overgewicht gestegen van 33% in 1981 naar 50% in 2022, en de verwachting is 62% in 2040 😱

This is my last week before my summer break 😅. I'm ending the season with a final sprint: I'm giving 4 workshops this week for various summer schools:

📃 Poster and graphical abstract design
🤳 Science communication & social media
👩‍💼 Presentation design
🎨 Crash course design for scientists

During the summer I'll be looking back, and will think of new ways how to make science sexy!
