Here’s one way to clarify your figures using contrast and font size. 👇 What would you like to improve in your next chart?

In science, we often assume the numbers will speak for themselves – but it’s a clear structure that makes them truly understandable.
You’ve got the data. You’ve got the chart. But people still don’t understand your results?
With a background in Geography (B.Sc.) and Sustainability Science (M.Sc.), simultaneously working six years in research-related contexts, and now three years as a designer — I know both worlds.
And I love building the bridge between them.
Visual Science Communication connects science with design – from one infographic to a whole project identity. Bridging both worlds is my strength. Let’s make your research visible.
Nice - thank you for finding it! :)
Thank you @lasseharkort.bsky.social for researching and compiling the data on this topic!
📚 Out of half a million natural-science articles, only 24 were written solely by researchers from low-income countries.https://doi.org/10.1038/d41586-023-04022-1
🌍 Over 70% of published geoscience articles on Africa included no African authors. doi.org/10.1016/j.ea...
There’s more than one way to show data. And sometimes, we need formats that don’t just inform — but move us.
👉 Which version would you use? How does it make you feel?
Most scientific figures aim to be clear.
But what if they also aimed to be compelling?
I love clean, well-structured data visuals — often, they’re exactly what’s needed.
But when data is about people — shouldn’t we also show them? #DataVisualization #SciComm @humboldteolab.bsky.social
Outreach can feel overwhelming: too short = oversimplified, too long = confusing, visuals = time sink, social media = full-time job. But with a solid plan & support, it gets easier, more fun—and less time-consuming. Curious? Let’s talk. #scicomm #sciart #infographics
Interesting connection! 🤯

This is what a conceptual figure should look like: accurate yet visually inviting. This way I understand what they did, was motivated to read the article and will look out for the next publication. thanks for sharing 💚 #scicomm
Things aren’t fine. A day on the water: beavers build, kingfishers hunt. Idyllic? Yet, environmental issues are treated as “nice-to-have.”
🔥 Fear alone won’t spark change - it leads to paralysis.
📈 Visualisation matters. Let’s get clearer, braver, better.

Important and well prepared in a nice infographic! 👏
You spend years on research - don’t let your findings get lost in complex charts or hidden reports. A well-designed #infographic can be used across formats: posters, social media, presentations, websites - saving time + increasing impact. #scicomm
Need visuals for your research group? Let’s talk!
"By presenting both messages effectively—the value of scientific curiosity and the impact of practical applications—we will strengthen public support for the long and winding road that is scientific discovery." ❤️❤️

Nice!
Manchmal kann man eben doch noch eine Einigung finden! #naturschutz #COP16 #biodiverstiy
Absolutely true!
Nice visualization!

This study also highlights an aspect, that is often forgotten: Communicating your science is not only helping the public, but also yourself to value your science and find your place in society as a scientist. #scicomm #science #sciart
Thank you ☺️
Such an important topic accompanied by this beautiful design work! Amazing! 🤩
Scary insight 😱
