To help researchers match existing drugs to unmet therapeutic needs, we designed/developed a website with a data app and illustrated case studies for the Drug Repurposing Hub @broadinstitute. Now we + RepHub have added a new search-by-structure feature! clue.io/repurposing

Ever wonder how successful science communicators got to where they are? Read stories and advice from artists, wordsmiths and voices behind @compoundchem @MFQCPod @DCScienceComedy @patternvizlab, @thecolumnco @sciam in this special email series! fal.cn/3qEhi #scicomm


Pattern illustrator and designer @oreillymk shared her top tips for success when designing a grant proposal figure—no special design skills required! Read all about it in our new blog post #scicomm #sciart

A behind-the-scenes look at how we @patternvizlab do design reviews and improve schematic figures with our researchers. Anyone can do this! No artistic talent required. #scicomm 5 Simple Design Principles for a Grant Proposal Figure Makeover by Pattern link.medium.com/Nj1OSBK6frb



Are your scientific figures saying what you think they are saying? It depends—check your Gestalt grouping! @oreillymk explains in this article how to use Gestalt Principles of Grouping to improve clarity and impact #scicomm #dataviz #sciart #science medium.com/@patternvizlab…


We had a busy year at the @broadinstitute! To wrap up the year, we wanted to look back at all the amazing science we were fortunate enough to contribute design and development work to. Here's our best of 2021. Thank you to all our collaborators! medium.com/@patternvizlab…


New cover art out now in @CellGenomics designed by our very own @moscienceart! #scicomm #sciart

Grateful to @moscienceart and the @patternvizlab team for their important contributions including a great journal cover!

For an upcoming paper w @joshbiology @broadinstitute, we explored a new approach to 3d UMAP #dataviz for single cell genomics. Read below about our design process behind improving the UX of navigating data in 3d space with a new "flip" method! Blog: bit.ly/30v9pbJ

Introducing a novel approach to 3d UMAP visualization for single cell genomic analysis

2d and 3d UMAP visualizations can be hard to navigate. We chose to take a new approach: flip it!


Pattern is on Medium! Communicating polygenic scores to a broad audience has a particular set of challenges. We are excited to share with you how we approached these challenges throughout our journey creating polygenicscores.org/explained/ Read about it here: medium.com/@patternvizlab…


Also new in the @GTExPortal @broadinstitute, we created violin plots that visualize single-cell gene expression but also dig deeper - how big was the sample, and what proportion of those cells expressed the gene? gtexportal.org/home/ #dataviz #singlecell #violinplot

Get a birds-eye view of where in our bodies our genes are expressed using our new Multi-Gene Single Cell Viewer, made in collaboration with our wonderful partners @GTExPortal @broadinstitute #dataviz #singlecell #asterplot

Our new Multi-Gene Single Cell Viewer, developed with the @patternvizlab, displays cell expression data for a list of genes. bit.ly/gtexmultiviewer

When we learned it was too late to submit cover art, we turned our concept into a poster for the @liugroup's latest base editing victory - changing a sickle cell-causing hemoglobin into a benign one. Thnx to @Broad_ChemBio & Congrats to @davidrliu and co-authors (see in poster)!

How will people comprehend a report detailing their polygenic risk score for coronary artery disease? Our team co-authored this user testing study that set out to answer this question. tinyurl.com/nebbwrb2 #polygenicrisk #scicomm

Looking beyond BMI, @amitvkhera and colleagues correlated specific regions of fat with risk for diabetes and coronary artery disease. Happy we could help them to visualize how they did it! #scicomm

By converting 3D MRI data into 2-dimensional projections from the front and side we reduced data input size for ML model 830-fold! but still allowed for near-perfect estimation of fat depot volumes in a holdout dataset
