People love stories. But too often, scientists forget that when it comes to communicating research. This week's podcast guest is Dr Jess Hopf @JKHopf. Her job is to help others tell their research stories- not with words, but visually! Host: @cynthiahqy.

We finally got to meet in person after a few years of monthly zoom ☕ and 🍵
@amaltr42 runs the great @avid_podcast, which I highly recommend if you listen to, especially if you want to learn about people doing cool STEM things.
Thanks Jen!
We're so lucky to have been able to work with fabulous @JKHopf from @KnowlegibleDsg on our #MyScienceMay graphics - I think they're wonderful!!
Thanks everyone for your input 🙏 It was nice confirmation that I'm on track with what I call myself!
Twitter friends, if you were looking for someone to help with any sort of scientific graphic (figures, posters, infographics, data viz, presentations, etc.) which term better captures who you're looking for?

My new paper is out in @PLOSBiology about art 🎨 and science 🧪collaborations! We argue that ✨art and science are one in the same✨ and provide recommendations for researchers & universities about how to support sci/art synergy.

This is one of the main reasons I started this business, to help students and phd researchers. Hearing that they are using what they learnt fills me with so much joy 🤓🤩😃
Couldn't have done it without your fantastic workshop @JKHopf . I learnt so much and got to put it into action immediately! Just wait until ANZIAM when I have more slides.

Share a fact that you know is right, but feels so wrong
I'll start...Sharks have been around longer than trees
When plotting data, do you give as much weight to choosing a colour map as you do to other aesthetics (like x-y axis ticks)? Well, you should and @fcrameri talks about why in this great paper.
(thanks @MarioMinguito for sending me this)

Glad you enjoyed it! It was so good to see everyone start to think about visual design as problem solving and have ideas on how to improve their figures by the end of the day!
Great workshop today on visual #SciCom by @KnowlegibleDsg “As researchers we’re meant to be amazing @ everything…but we’re not always taught how”. Super helpful to have access to this training, thanks @KateHelmstedt and @JKHopf for making it happen
Thanks for having me AMEG crew! :)
Pumped to hear from Jess @JKHopf on @KnowlegibleDsg about how to make effective #Visuals for science communication. #scicomm
ALT Dr Jess Hopf stands next to a projection of the title slide for the workshop "Creating effective visuals for communicating your science".
I've LOVED @NatGeo infographics and illustrations since I was a kid, so I'm super stoked to get my hands on this beauty of a book!! 😍😍
