The Drawing Scientist, where science and art come into contact
My name is Veronica La Padula and I’m the artist and scientist behind The Drawing Scientist.
With over 10 years’ experience in biomedical research, a PhD in neuroscience and a specialist in cell biology and microscopy, I’ve always been interested in the visual aspect of science. I created images for my scientific papers, posters and lectures, with the aim of making the information I wanted to convey accessible to all those who were unfamiliar with the subject I was dealing with.
With the aim of becoming more professional in scientific illustration and mastering graphic design software, I obtained a diploma in Computer Graphics and Web Design.
As both a scientist and a graphic designer, I’m on the borderline between the worlds of art and science.
I’ll enhance your projects by creating original, informative, interesting and polished scientific illustrations or by designing bespoke websites to raise awareness of your scientific research work.

my values
I strongly believe that disseminating scientific knowledge can improve people’s quality of life, by giving them the tools to observe objectively, reason critically and ask the right questions to explore the world.
Together, we can create and develop innovative ways of communicating science.
accuracy
Scientific rigour is reflected in my concern to respect the exactness of scientific data: I will not take artistic liberties just “to look good”.
culture
Cell biology, neuroscience and microscopy are my favourite fields, but my scientific culture in general will be at the service of your visual communication.
dialogue
I speak English, French and Italian, but above all the universal language of science.
I love learning from experts in a wide variety of scientific fields.
I’ll be asking you lots of questions to help develop the project.

my portfolio
Computer graphics, diagrams for scientific articles, image manipulation, illustrations for books and scientific publications, covers for newspapers, visuals for social networks.
But also logo and web design, branding and design of educational games.
This type of creation is ideal for publications aimed at a children’s audience or those who like the charm of “handmade”.
Write to me about your project and we will discuss it together!
Naturally open to new things and curious by nature, I don’t just do scientific illustration!
I draw in ink and paint in watercolour to create visuals that are fresh, organic, textured and rich in colour.
Send me your project and we’ll discuss it together!
