‘Splicing’ – the cartoon

Posted on March 20, 2015March 20, 2015 by et Al.

I’ve been working with Ally Wallace to develop cartoon-like drawings that illustrate our research – here is some work in progress. I like the lab soundscape in the background. The aim was to develop something that might appeal to a younger audience, and tries to take an imaginative approach to the subject. Maybe a bit too wordy, so I’m now doing much more stripped back drawings – these were all done on an iPad using the ProCreate app. Then again, maybe it would be better as a short pamphlet/book….let’s see.

Welcome to 'It's About Time' - a blog about circadian clocks and temperature - created by Plant Scientists at the University of Glasgow and The James Hutton Institute @Dundee.

Follow us as we investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying how plants feel temperature, knowledge that is crucial to understanding how plants - and our food crops - maintain proper timing enabling them to grow and develop efficiently.

Plants are phenomenally important to our own, and our planet's, wellbeing. Delve into our posts and pages and meet the scientists who are fascinated by these questions - we hope that you will be too!

We are grateful for the funding from our United Kingdom sponsors, the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC).
