Visual abstract template available in our gallery

Title

Describe the title of your study as the main title. A title should be as clear as possible. Mind the Graph template also gives you the possibility of adding additional text as subtitles. If the template does not show the option it can also be added from the side toolbar “Add Text” A subtitle should provide a brief contest of the study to the reader.

Purpose

While you arrange various visual elements, make sure that the purpose of the study is clear in the text. While we tend to describe the method, result and observation in various heading (1-4) sections, do not miss the purpose of the abstract.

Key Points

Essential ideas or findings can be covered under various heading sections. Use concise bullet points highlighting the core message.

Visual Elements

Visual abstract templates from Mind the Graph allows you to access the enormous database of icons and illustrations specifically prepared for the scientific community. Use of images, icons, or graphics to represent key information. We also have a molecular library for the addition of chemical structures.

Attractive color schemes that align with the content can be used to emphasize the research. With great background options change the color and its transparency to suit your style of the graphics and icons.

Consider Using Fonts With A Good Readability

The selection of fonts for a visual abstract is also very important. The template gives you the best-selected font style according to the designer. However, it is always possible to choose something that you use as your research group identifier or your conference, or university requirement. Some journals also could provide you with specifications for visual graphics.
