Stanford Medicine

This is a series of illustrations created
for Stanford Medicine magazine through David Armario Design.
Dennis McLeod art director.


Growing support for basic scientific research,
as opposed to specific areas.




The network of people at Stanford
is a huge part of the institution's reputation
for cutting edge research.





The subject here is three research labs
working simultaneously to solve a puzzle
involving the behavior of proteins inside cells.



This illustration is for a piece about the fact that
the scientific community has recognized the usefulness
of wikis and video for sharing laboratory protocols
but only a few researchers appear to be using them.

Harrod Blank, filmmaker and art car empresario
