Taking a close look at science

The artwork created illustrates the process of precisely extracting and summarising information from complex scientific papers in an easily understandable way. This is represented by inspection of scientific papers by magnifying glasses that clearly reveal information from different scientific fields that range from chemistry and neurology to astronomy and physics. This efficient way of conveying scientific information and data is achieved through creating plain-language summaries of scientific papers, which can help journals in the biomedical sciences to reach a much broader audience.
