The Visual Science Communication Network — VSCN, pronounced “Vision” — connects people passionate about visualizing knowledge.

We believe that more knowledge deserves to be given a visual form. Images make research accessible, spark curiosity, and build bridges between science and society.

What We’re Building

• Building a comprehensive registry of illustrators, designers, and scientists.
• Organizing events for and about visual science communication.
• Showcasing and celebrating outstanding visual storytelling.
• Creating stronger links between the sciences, illustration, and design.

For Scientists & Research Groups

VSCN is not only for the people who make the images — it is just as much for the researchers who need them. If you want your work to be seen and understood, you belong here. No portfolio required.

• Find illustrators, designers, and animators who already work in your field.
• Make your research group findable for visual collaborations.
• Show how your research has been visualized — and who helped do it.

We’re in the early stages
