tHE idea

The Objective

The scientific journal editor proposes illustration services to authors who wish to publish in their peer-reviwed journal.
As scientific graphic designer, I then intervene to adapt the author's graphical abstract or figure to journal guidelines and style.

Step 02
tHE brief

Editor

Blood - American Society of Hematology
Peer-reviewed journal - IF: 20.3

Article

Journal style

Editor's guidelines focus on the format of the figure: 492 px x 343.35 px (formatted in picas).
The Avenir font is preferred and should not be smaller than 8 pt

Colors

Colors should be adapted for color-blind people: elements that need to be identified or differentiated need to be seen by at least the most common types of color blindness (Protanopia and Deuteranopia).

Step 03

In this issue of Blood, Tashakori et al elucidated the genomic and proteomic features of TP53-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML), a disease with a dismal prognosis that is currently spread across several AML disease categories.
