“The greatest scientists are artists as well,” Albert Einstein once said. But how can scientists communicate their results more effectively through art? One of the most common ways of communicating science today is through a one-dimensional focus on visuals such as graphs, illustrations and images. These often lack aesthetics and thereby fail to catch attention, crippling the intended message and impact.
How do we enhance interest in our research by communicating through art, i.e. in an aesthetic fashion that draws not only on vision but on all five senses of human perception?
Listen as junior researchers within the field of diabetes and an expert discuss possible solutions to this challenge.
