Sofía Polcowñuk

I am a Ph.D. in Biology, a neuroscientist by training, a wildlife ecologist by heart, a scientific illustrator, and a communicator. I work in graphical abstract and figure designs as covers and artistic illustrations as well. I have experience using Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign as with other media like watercolors.

My background in Science allows me to understand complex scientific concepts and to represent them in an accurate and aesthetic way.
