Inside the Image - How scientists see the world


Jun 16, '10 3:44 PM
for everyone

Fuçando o site da Mac à procura de "refurbisheds" esbarrei com esse blog interno deles. 


Bem legal ... 

Tem depoimentos de alguns cientistas que dão um foco especial ao uso de imagens no seu trabalho. 


Vale a pena dar uma olhada!



"It exemplifies what science education is painfully lacking— stunning and accessible visual representations portraying the very essence of what science is all about."




Inside the Image

How scientists see the world

Welcome to Inside the Image, a celebration of the visual expression of science. University of California Berkeley biologist Angela DePace and I will be contributing regularly to this column devoted to the exciting and fascinating world of scientific discovery and how images made in laboratories and publications in science advance our understanding of the world around us.
Each installment will highlight specially selected representations (photographs, illustrations, diagrams, animations, etc.) made by researchers from all disciplines and others who work with various forms of visual communication of scientific phenomena. There will be interviews with those involved with specific representations to further our understanding of the scientific meaning of the image with insights into new processes, methodologies, and technologies.
Angela and I are both deeply involved in the visual expression of science and we are committed to encouraging both the scientist and non-scientist to understand its importance. This column is not just about pretty pictures, although we certainly believe that a stunningly beautiful picture in science can be just that, as well as highly informational and inspirational.
So much of scientific advancement is all about seeing. With this new endeavor, we invite you to become as mesmerized as we with the wondrous phenomena we can learn from the visual expression of science
