@4Vultures If you have an vulture scientists that want to visually communicate their research, please reach out! :)

The application form is quick—just tell us about your research, elements you’d like to see visualized, and your favorite comics. If you are a newcomer to comics, you are welcome too.

There are a few more days to apply for a science comic collab! This semester’s cohort of students had a few special requests for scientific topics. 😎 If you or a colleague researches one of these, please consider applying! And please share widely.

Selected scientists will collaborate with the next cohort of art and design students in my Science Communication & Comics course at the Massachusetts College of Art & Design. All countries and scientific fields welcome. Yes, that includes you, social science. 😎

Seeking scientist volunteers for this spring! Want to practice science communication and help author a ✨comic✨ about your research? Learn more & sign up here by 1/30: bit.ly/comicscollabsp…

😮🤩 Wow, a completely filled room at our #CellBio2024 #SciArt session! What an amazing evening with inspiring talks about creativity, education and microscopy. Huge thanks to our speakers and audience. Please reach out if you're interested in co-organizing or speaking next year!

If anyone knows of more delightful “how would X wear pants?” answers, I’d love to know. Starfish are mostly head, so no pants at all. Tardigrades are all “forearms”, so they’d just wear a little loincloth in the back.

We have an exciting lineup for our #CellBio2024 #SciArt subgroup on Tuesday! Enjoy fascinating talks by @DoroteaArt, @HuWantsToKnow, @Hermina_HN, @S_Nowotarski, Jessica Heebner, Leah Krevitt, Igor Siwanowicz & Yan Yu. The session will be co-chaired by @jayeperview. See you there!

Ugh. Teaching students online research best practices just gets tougher.

Are you a San Diego local or coming to #CellBio2024? Come join our very special #SciArt Show & Reception on Dec 17, bringing together amazing researchers and artists who have been inspired by the wonders of biology. Please spread the word and RSVP here: beatascienceart.com/artshow2024/

@matteofarinella When would final works be due? Thanks 😎

As you can imagine I'm pretty excited about this one! Please send us your best ideas, and if you want to turn your article into a comic or infographic don't hesitate to ask. We don't have a big budget but I'm determined to make this issue radical in both content and style! ✊
