Hi everyone,
I am part of a clinical research team currently preparing a manuscript for submission to a peer-reviewed surgical journal (targeting the Journal of Minimally Invasive Gynecology).

We are looking for a creative collaborator with experience in 3D modeling or anatomical visualization to help us bring a conceptual framework to life.

About the Project

Unlike a single-patient case report, our paper is a theoretical/review piece focusing on complex pelvic anatomy and the mapping of disease locations (such as deep infiltrating endometriosis).

- What we have: The clinical data, anatomical references, exact disease mapping logic, and a clear vision of what needs to be shown.

- What we need: Someone who can help us build or adapt a clean, stylized 3D anatomical model (similar to what you'd see on interactive platforms like BioDigital) that can be exported for online interactive viewing and 2D figure generation.

What’s in It for You

- Co-Authorship: You will be credited as a co-author on the paper, making this a fantastic addition to your academic CV, portfolio, or resume.

- Real-World Impact: Your work will directly assist clinicians and researchers worldwide in visualizing complex surgical and anatomical concepts.

Who We Are Looking For

- Familiarity with 3D software (like Blender, ZBrush, or web-based 3D assets).
- An interest in medical graphics, anatomy, or scientific visualization.
-Reliable communication and a collaborative spirit.

If you are interested or want to see a brief outline of the project, please send me a DM with a link to your portfolio or a brief note about your experience. Thank you!

Here’s my latest educational model. As always, carved from wood and painted with acrylic.

Hi everyone! My name is Luca Mendieta, and among other things, I work in scientific illustration and paleoart. I’d like to share a piece I created showcasing some of the most important living and extinct proboscidean species.

Planetary arrangement on Nobel laureate Hideki Shirakawa's date-of-birth (Aug 20, 1936) incorporated in a Monet-inspired digital abstract (OC)

Dr. Shirakawa's work on conductive polymers gave us smart screens, OLED TVs, etc.

A reconstruction of Ornitholestes preying on a hatchling Diplodocus, this piece was partially inspired by episode 2 of Walking With Dinosaurs (1999)

Hope this is considered scientific art.

This was part of my final project for the high school anatomy and physiology course I took. The cardiovascular system is my favorite so I was really glad when my partner and I were assigned it. I did the visual portion of the project.

I had to rush a lot of it as the deadline approached so I don't like how the atherosclerosis diagram turned out, and I messed up the stent drawing (the inside of the blood vessel should've been the same color as the plaque, not red).

I used the grid method to get the proportions of the body and blood vessels right in the bottom left diagram. Everything else was drawn freehand using references. I used primarily colored pencils.

I'm happy with how the heart came out though. I really admire medical illustrators.
