AP2015: Design for Non-Designers: Visual Representions In Your Research

Good design helps to establish a clear message and a trustworthy relationship with your audience, facilitating the way your research will be received and remembered. If you are not familiar with visual or design principles, you will still need to prepare visual descriptions of experiments and results in your research.
