Data, Design, and Dissemination: A research communications workshop series

Research communication is important - As professional and general audiences get information from an increasingly diverse set of sources, researchers benefit from an understanding of approaches that take advantage of the multimedia world we’re in.  This series will equip you with tools and know-how to communicate your research effectively through visual communication and thoughtful decisions about ways to reach your audience.

• Part 2 - Design: Participants will learn how to create their own figures through design principles and accessibility guidelines in this interactive workshop. We demonstrate a few different tools and leave time for participants to create their own simple figures.
  • Learn how to apply design principles to make research figures
  • Understand accessibility issues related to visual communication
  • Explore and engage in creative play with software for making figures
