Abstract:

Properly illustrating the scientific methods and pipelines is considered as a critical aspect of any research project since it can help convey the message in a more appropriate way and prevent misunderstanding. In this presentation, our main aim would be to bring about ideas on how to efficiently use PowerPoint to sketch our scientific figures and pipelines with a focus on methods based on computational biology and machine learning. This can boost the quality of illustrations for live presentation and publications.
