New thesis in my collection 📘 The front cover captures the academic side. The constellations in the back reveal the personal side. A reminder that every PhD is more than just the research. #amsterdamumc #phdlife #proefschrift #sciart #neuroscience #bbb #brainbarriers

(Now) Dr. Geyer had a clear idea for her PhD thesis cover: an anatomical hand drawing of a human lung. 🫁She wanted to show the transition from a sick to a healthy lung through blue and pink shades. #SciArt #ScientificIllustration #Lungs #PhDthesis

✏️ I've immersed myself in the intricate patterns of the bronchial tree, and using dots to bring volume and depth to the illustration. It was a beautiful (and intense) experience!

🔍 For the thesis internal layout, we used zoomed-in areas of the drawing to illustrate the beginning of each chapter, so that the detail could be appreciated. Can't wait to hold the physical copy in my hands! #PhDthesis #Anatomy #Lungs #Proefschrift #ThesisLayout

📔 So happy to get this #PhDthesis in my hands! A visual summary of years of research on one cover. 🖌️ I loved bringing Linnea's idea to life. Inspired by classic #ScientificIllustrations and cyanotypes, with a figure legend on the back. #sciart youtube.com/shorts/aXf0RZoYS…

A #PhD cover is more than just an illustration: It's a symbol of your research and of YOU as a researcher. I worked closely with Davide Vacondio to capture both his scientific journey and his vision of what research is: an exploration. 👇 More about the process

💧 #Neurovascular dysfunction is represented by rivers flowing between brain ridges, sprouting capillary beds as trees, with capCAA deposits along the banks. 🔥 #Neuroinflammation appears as swollen brain regions, erupting lipid mediators and pro-inflammatory factors.
