A successful grant or manuscript contains not only carefully edited text, but also professionally presented figures and diagrams. Professional-quality figures and illustrations can require a great deal of time and energy, and in some cases, artistic talent. Our team has extensive experience using GraphPad Prism, Adobe Photoshop, and Procreate to develop professional and polished figures. Our services range from the analysis of raw data to the development and creation of graphical abstracts.
Data Analysis and Figure Development
As well-trained PhD scientists in both basic and translational research, we have extensive experience in the analysis and development of raw data. We have experience with using online genomic databases such as cBioPortal, analyzing data from BioVu, and developing figures from raw images and backlogged data collections. For more developed pieces of data, we can help reorganize or redevelop figures, transition graphs from powerpoint to graphpad, or propose alternative methods of presentation. In addition to developing figures we can help refine or redo figures to create a clean and consistent presentation across a manuscript or grant.

Custom Illustrations
Professionally developed scientific illustrations are a fantastic way to enhance and showcase your research. Whether you have a current figure you are hoping to improve or want to develop a custom figure from scratch, our team will work with you to develop a finalized figure to fit your needs. Below are a few examples of how authors have utilized custom illustrations. Below is an estimation of time spent on projects. Please note, time spent depends on complexity of figures and number of revisions after initial product. These estimates may be adjusted after the launch period:
- Improvement of already designed figures or simple depictions : 1-4 hours, 3-5 days turnaround
- Complex infographics, diagrams, or graphical abstracts : 5-10 hours, 7-10 days turnaround
- Custom mechanisms or complex diagrams : 10+ hours, 14+ days turnaround
We can improve already designed figures:
Work from brief sketches and discussions:
Develop infographics or overviews for presentations or reviews:
Develop graphical abstracts from text:
Develop custom mechanistic pathways tailored to your research:
