Medical Illustrators across America and around the world are helping in the fight against COVID-19 side by side with the providers, institutions, and clients we support. We are developing just-in-time visual training materials for front-line nurses and doctors, mapping out the molecular structure and potential therapies with researchers in the lab, and disseminating accurate information to the public during this pandemic. As a profession we care deeply about human health and scientific progress. We are committed to the fight and we are in it until it is won.

Many AMI members are actively creating content with partners in the medical and scientific communities. In the best of times, the information communicated by the content created by medical illustrators create is paramount. High quality and accurate visuals are a necessity in times of crisis

Below is a running list of resources where AMI members have created scientific visualizations concerning the COVID-19 pandemic:
