So, might you be interested in using your artistic talents to make this site a much brighter and better place? If so, I'd love to hear from you! Ongoing contributors to this work demonstrates the range of people involved.
I'm looking for people who are interested in learning more about health and health education. No prior understanding of biology is necessary, though the more you know, the more you will be able to be involved in project design.
Most of the projects listed below are aimed at the public. As such, the concepts to be illustrated need to be simple, understandable, and beautiful. Misleading information is clearly no good, but neither is anything so complex it doesn't make sense.
