Report: Image and Meaning Conference

Increasing use of visualization techniques in science offers good opportunities to use the images to communicate science more effectively both within the scientific world and to the public. But because there is insufficient collaboration among scientists, journalists, and imaging experts, including photographers and illustrators, the remarkable new images coming out of science are rarely used to best advantage. The Image and Meaning conference, held at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology 14-16 June 2001, was organized to encourage greater collaboration among the relevant groups with the goal of encouraging better communication.
