Effect of Dendrimer-Based Therapeutic Delivery System on Blood Brain-Barrier
- Project Overview: The task was to design visual communication for scientific poster presentations and articles, making complex research findings accessible and compelling.
- Solution: This was achieved by creating a poster and a series of images telling a cohesive story with information layered progressively by strategically placing focal points to create a natural flow of information.
- Result and Impact: The outcome was a highly effective communication of intricate research findings, leading to increased viewer engagement, better comprehension, and high citation scores.
The blood-brain barrier (BBB), is a complex system that maintains Central Nervous System homeostasis by regulating the transport of molecules between the blood and brain. Recent advances in nanotechnology have led to the development of promising tool for the transport of biologically active compounds across the BBB. The study aimed to investigate the hemolytic, cytotoxic properties of novel nanocarriers and their effect on the BBB.
Role of microRNA in muscle regeneration and diseases
- Project Overview: The objective was to craft intricate biomedical illustrations that elucidate the role of microRNA and muscle regeneration, enhancing the accessibility and appeal of research article.
- Solution: I employ a meticulously crafted visual hierarchy, a palette of strategic colours to delineate each crucial step to guide the audience seamlessly in demystifying intricate microRNA-related regeneration processes
- Result and Impact: We have successfully conveyed the intricate research findings, leading to heightened engagement, enhanced comprehension, and notably elevated citation scores in scientific discourse.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs with potential as biomarkers in various health conditions, including muscle wasting. Understanding their role in muscle atrophy could be crucial for improving patient care, as they play a significant role in gene expression regulation in muscle tissue.
The Electron Transport Chain's Role in Oxidative Stress Generation
- Project Overview: The objective involved crafting visual communication elements for scientific posters and articles, aiming to render intricate research findings both accessible and compelling to a diverse audience.
- Solution: This was achieved by utilizing a cohesive color palette and clear typography enhancing readability, while strategically placing arrows and protein structures ensuring a visually engaging and logically structured presentation.
- Result and Impact: The work resulted in heightened viewer engagement and improved comprehension reflecting the success of the visual elements conveying complex scientific information effectively.
“Oxidative stress” refers to harmful processes resulting from an imbalance between excessive reactive oxygen and nitrogen species production and limited antioxidant capacity. This imbalance, driven by factors such as altered enzyme activity and increased cellular metabolism, can lead to uncontrolled elevation of oxidant concentrations. Consequently, this dysregulation initiates chain reactions causing degradation of biomolecules like proteins, lipids, polysaccharides, and nucleic acids.
Device designed for macroscopic photography of biological structures
- Project Overview: The objective was to enhance the design, develop technical drawings and visualizations for a patent of a 3D-printable device designed to enable macroscopic photography of biological structures.
- Solution: I enhanced the device's design for optimal functionality and translated the design into a 3D-printable format, accompanied by meticulous technical drawings for patent documentation and final product visualisation.
- Result and Impact: The final product resonates the ability to convert innovative ideas into a 3D-printable format, supported by technical drawings and visualisations, showcasing commitment to precision and innovation in product development.
The designed device facilitates the production of professional macroscopic photographs of stained eukaryotic cell cultures, as well as bacterial and fungal cell cultures, with minimal financial investment and is feasible to capture images that precisely illustrate the biological structures under constant lighting parameters. The resulting photographs serve as valuable visual aids for depicting biological structures in scientific publications and analytical laboratories allowing for the accurate quantification of colonies without the need for expensive counters.
Potential anticancer drugs on display
- Project Overview: The task was to design visuals for custom-designed team T-shirts for conferences and project meetings, creating a cohesive and inspiring identity that resonates with the team's shared mission.
- Solution: Through this collaboration, I translated the team's scientific objectives into visually impactful designs that resonated with their mission.
- Result and Impact: The result was a cohesive visual identity that not only fostered a sense of belonging among team members but also served as a powerful conversation starter at conferences and project meetings.
The incidence of cancer is rapidly increasing and is now the second most common cause of death worldwide. Much current research is largely focused not only on finding and analysing compounds that affect the structures of cancer cells, but also interact with their metabolic pathways. One of the hallmarks of many cancers is the overexpression of an enzyme involved in glucose metabolism -hexokinase II. Many studies suggest that interference with the normal function of this enzyme may be an effective therapeutic target inchemotherapy
