Nihil CuritsCurrent reading is a very good comic about neuroscience and the 'social' nature of our brains. #GraphicScience #Neuroscience
Cells at Work (Code Black, 3, 13) never ceases to amaze me with its imaginative representations of the body. Here, red blood cells in the kidney enter a nephron to get hosed down by glomeruli. #GraphicScience #SciCom #Comics
Matteo FarinellaYay! Everyone reads this now 👇
"scientific papers are kind of an awful medium. They’re incomprehensible. It’s kind of a secret form of gatekeeping."
Thanks, Kanaka Rajan for championing comics, as a more accessible #scicomm format!

A very good little intro to what is known as SciArt, the merging and collaboration of science and the visual arts. #GraphicScience https://www.emergingcreativesofscience.com/post/what-is-sciart
What is SciArt?
How the world of science communication is getting creative and my take on the processSciArt is the joining of science and art. This is not a new concept as both artists and scientists aim to explore their environment and understand it through their respective mediums. Leonardo da Vinci is a great example of a 'SciArtist' using techniques from both fields to understand the world around him. However, as time progressed, the education system began to separate these fields and many people are faced
Our brain tumour lab flow comic is up. Requested by Brain Tmour Support, so lovely to see it on their website. This is the first science comic I’ve been involved in, and I’m very excited by the ones to come next. We decided to keep it formally simple to not distract from the information. I think it works. I hope patients find it helpful. #ScieceCommunication #GraphicScience #comics https://www.braintumoursupport.org.nz/obtaining-a-diagnosis

Hello everyone
Just noticed it’s my 1st anniversary on Mastodon. There doesn’t seem to be much to celebrate at the moment, but Mastodon is a reminder humans are good, curious, intelligent, witty, creative, supportive and on the whole very lovely.
Thanks for being here.
If anyone wants to say hello, I’m a media professor interested in #comics and #GraphicScience and #GraphicMedicine in particular. I’m currently writing a book on comics and #communication. Glad I found this place. 🙏🏼

If you liked #Oppenheimer you’ll probably love this. A detailed history of the atomic bomb by Didier Alicante, LF Bollee and Denis Rodier, including many more voice and perspectives than the film. #comics #GraphicScience
In-depth interview with science comics pioneer Jay Hosler, in The Comics Journal:

"I really believe strongly that science comics are best when there is not just a little narrative, but a strong narrative, like where the science isn't necessarily the sole focus of what I'm doing."
💯 agree!
"I Just Wanna Keep Doing This": Jay Hosler on 20 Years of YA Comics - The Comics Journal
Picking up after nearly 20 years, Chris Mautner reunites with a favorite interview subject: artist and biologist Jay Hosler, whose all-ages science-based comics now seek to navigate a very different, ostensibly more hospitable, yet ever-unpredictable terrain.
