But you don&#8217;t always find exactly the right illustrations, do you? And if you find, one is 2-D, the other 3-D, the other one has a disturbing colorful background, and so on.<\/p>\n<p>This was my case in many times, when I was doing my PhD. Luckily for you, there are new ways of creating beautiful scientific illustrations.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mindthegraph.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mind the Graph<\/a>\u00a0this platform offers thousands of scientific illustrations, which you can use directly online. They are all in the same style, and so beautiful! You can use them in banners, posters for conferences, scientific articles, classes and so on. It&#8217;s well crafted and complete. Plus, if you don&#8217;t find what you need, they will add new on demand illustrations for you. In the platform you can insert images, charts, edit the image background, etc and customize everything how you need to create your own unique scientific figure. The highlight is the quality and variety of illustrations in life science, biomedicine and health.<a href=\"https:\/\/mindthegraph.com\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5732 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.mindthegraph.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/untitled-creation63724-1-300x120.png\" alt=\"scientific illustrations\" width=\"300\" height=\"120\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mindthegraph.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/untitled-creation63724-1-300x120.png 300w, https:\/\/mindthegraph.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/untitled-creation63724-1-1024x410.png 1024w, https:\/\/mindthegraph.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/untitled-creation63724-1.png 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>This is how it works<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Mind the Graph - How it works\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ukJyP5np9fg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Browsing Google Images became a waste of time, honestly!<\/p>\n<p>You can also try <a href=\"http:\/\/www.servier.com\/Powerpoint-image-bank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Servier bank<\/a>, which is created by a pharmaceutical industry that offers editable images in ppt.
