Abstract:
Collaborative research in biomedical communications investigates the role of visual media in scientific discovery and in patient and health professional education. The spectrum of work is broad and includes the visualization of scientific knowledge and simulation of hypothetical models of health and disease, as well as the design of audience-centered interactive visual media. The work cited supports the notion that research-based visual media can contribute to the core missions of science: discovery, communication, collaboration, and education.
