But what happens when we have to share our science with people whose backgrounds are radically different to what we\u2019re used to? In these cases, we enter the domain of science communication and science outreach, a radically different way of communicating science that requires equally radically different skills of communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scientific illustration is a great way to make one\u2019s science more accessible to the general public, as it helps others visualise complex scientific concepts that would be totally foreign to them otherwise. Being able to convert what we do every day in the lab into approachable illustrations takes a bit of imagination, a lot of trial and error, and why not, a bit of humour as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From very simple stick figures to more complex illustrations, from digital art to more classical media, helping others visualise your work will help you keep your audience more engaged with your work, as well as help them understand it better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Alicia a postdoc in the lab of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbelab.es\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dr.&nbsp;\u00c1lvaro San Mill\u00e1n<\/a>.
