JOIN SCIENTISTS and industry professionals FROM Around the world as they learn PROFESSIONAL ILLUSTRATION SKILLS TO complement THEIR RESEARCH and outreach

Learning a new skill is not easy. We understand that.

Which is why we at Sci-Illustrate have meticulously honed our curriculum through the years of teaching professional science illustration to scientists like you, so that you can learn fast and learn exactly what is relevant to your work.

We will be guiding you through the fundamentals of graphic design and using Adobe illustrator in the context of life science, topping it off with a day of handling advanced case studies that will set you on your way to becoming an expert.

WHAT our students SAY

“The team at Sci Illustrate are extremely professional and produce high-quality images that are scientifically accurate. I would strongly recommend them to any one looking for high quality scientific images. They also run fantastic beginners classes for the use of Adobe Illustrator which are easy to understand and follow by every one, even with minimal computing knowledge.”

— Dr. Raghav Sundar, Assistant Professor, NUS

“As a scientist I often need to process images connected with research. I signed up for the Sci-Illustrate workshop to learn basics of Adobe Illustrator as I need to prepare illustrations for a scientific paper. During this very intense workshop Radhika and Arne taught us basics of Adobe Illustrator as well as plenty of useful tricks. We were learning in small group, so everybody got help in case of trouble. The workshop was focused on Illustrator`s use for scientific purposes. I think it is an unique opportunity to attend this workshop, especially because it is different from other courses that are general and mostly focused in graphic design. I would highly recommend it.”

— Agnieszka Szmitkowska, PhD Student, CEITEC

“Illustration, a visual interpretation of a text or concept. As a scientific researcher, we often have the
problem of explaining our biological concepts to the broad audience. I signed up for the Sci-
illustrate workshop organized at CEITEC with the minimal knowledge of Adobe Illustrator. The wonderful
team of Sci-illustrate (Radhika & Arne) gave us an in-hand experience on the tips and tricks to
generate the magnificent illustrations to explain the biological questions/models. I would highly
recommend the course for any stage of users.”

— Taraka Ramji Moturu PhD Student, CEITEC-MU, Czechia

“I was introduced to Sci-Illustrate and their team via EuroSTEMPeers 2019. The Sci-Illustrate
workshop held at CEITEC was exactly what I was looking for to help me express my
love for science through great illustrations. Radhika Patnala and Arne Fabritius helped me to
understand the basics of Adobe illustrator. With a solid foundation after attending the
workshop, I was able to explore different ways to communicate my research in a simple yet
catchy way. This gave rise to the first CEITEC research comics. I am thankful to both Radhika
and Arne for helping me to get a much needed start into science communication via
illustrations.”

— Nandan Varadarajan, PhD Student, CEITEC
