"Exploring visualization strategies through shifting contexts"
Visualization is a powerful means to enable the discovery and communication of key features in complex data. Blending classic visualization strategies with approaches from data science, storytelling, and biomedical illustration opens up new opportunities for user insight and engagement. But, how do we know if we got it right? The success of a visualization is dependent in large part upon its context: how is it made, for whom, and why? The context can shift: technologies such as generative AI are changing how many of us make visualizations, or the audience of a visualization may change and require adjusted design approaches to facilitate different analytical or communication goals. Awareness and reflection on the utility of these strategies is useful for the medical and biological sciences, particularly as we navigate changes in technology and society in the wake of the pandemic.
