In this student-requested video, I demo the process of making a high quality publication-ready figure (from making a mockup to enhancing visual similarity in Illustrator) and narrate my general process.

I recently realized a lot of trainees don't really know the format of a compelling research presentation. I compiled a template that people can download on my lab website! A 🧵 to explain each component... 1. start with a nice title slide. https://t.co/wZ2wzjNFJJ

[Dr Naomi Moris @nmoris]

Have you ever wondered how your back formed? The human embryo makes a neural tube (future spinal cord) and somites (trunk muscle/bone) from ~d20. They’re formed at the same time and place, so we used human Trunk-like Structures (hTLS) to investigate their ‘co-development’… (1/7)
