UR Women in Neuroscience Workshop: Figures for Scholarly Communication (April 14, 2025)

Graphical Abstracts Activity

Working in groups of 2-3, choose one article from the list below and collaborate on storyboarding and creating a rough draft of a graphical abstract. 

  • Start by identifying the concepts you want to illustrate.
  • Storyboard on paper.
  • Create a rough draft of the graphical abstract on paper.
  • Optional: Try recreating your rough draft in BioRender.

Important: 

  • Please resist the urge to look up the article and its graphical abstract!
  • We'll view and critique the authors' graphical abstracts after the activity.
