Scientific Illustrations

My artistic approach to scientific illustrations is due to the reason I chose to study biology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. The visuals of nature have always fascinated me and I have always wanted to know how things work. I remember when I was a little girl, I would look at my mother's medical books and marvel at the strange and magical forms of all kinds of bacteria. I started illustrating scientific illustrations when I worked as a research assistant in an evolutionary developmental biology lab during my studies. I suggested to the lab professor Ariel Chipman to illustrate for a course called "Introduction to Biology and Evolution of Organisms". I learned that the students enjoyed studying the course material accompanied by colorful illustrations that facilitated comprehension. Since then, I have continued to illustrate for many researchers in Israel and around the world. I help them present their research and knowledge more clearly and beautifully. I'll be happy to offer you my services as an illustrator for academic articles and books that will enhance your content and improve the audience's understanding of your research. netta.kasher@mail.huji.ac.il
