BioAirNet

We created a suite of primary and secondary resources for an international consortium of academics and experts in air pollution. The animations, handouts and PowerPoints explain what bioaerosols are and how they affect our health.

STEMAP

We worked with the NSF-funded STEM Ambassadors Program to produce a marketing brochure aimed at encouraging academics to become STEM Ambassadors.

MicroBoost

We produced three flyers for an NSF-funded project led by Wayne State University, the aim of which are to recruit participants to focus groups.

MicroBoost logo

The MicroBoost team sought our help for a logo that encapsulated the theme of their project. The project aims to address the transportation-related employment needs of individuals with disabilities living in metro Detroit, USA.

PROPEL

We created a digital and tri-fold print brochure for a team at University of California, San Francisco. PROPEL’s mission is to support students from historically underrepresented backgrounds with research experience and career mentorship.

Improving Practice Together

We designed and wrote a marketing brochure for Improving Practice Together (IPT), a research-practice partnership between UC Berkeley’s Lawrence Hall of Science, Stanford University's Graduate School of Education, and Santa Clara Unified School District in the US. The aim of IPT is to help teachers introduce argumentation into their elementary school science classes.

Compendium on
bioaerosol sampling

We enhanced graphics and visuals for a compendium published by the Indoor/Outdoor Interface and Relationships network (BioAirNet), one of six networks funded by the UKRI.

Think Like A Scientist

We designed two flyers for a STEM education project supported by the University of Colorado School of Medicine. The aim is to inspire elementary school students from underrepresented backgrounds to become scientists.

Next generation
paper technology

We collaborated with a team at the University of Surrey and Open University to explore authoring and playback systems for augmented learning materials.

3C4Life

We are on the advisory board for 3C4Life, an EU-funded project led by the International Centre for STEM Education which aims to tackle teacher shortages in STEM subjects.

Professor Stephen Hutchings
Our team is very pleased with the outcome of our work with Futurum. The process of collaboration was well managed, transparent and thorough. The editor of our brochure did a great job and was responsive to all our requests and comments. The Futurum publication and dissemination strategy is most impressive and will ensure the sort of exposure to our project we could never have achieved ourselves.

It was a pleasure working with Karen and her colleagues. They picked up on all the fine points of our project and even found the most appropriate picture they could have for the article. On top of their expertise and knowledge they seem to be clairvoyant or telepaths!

The Sci-Comm team helped us identify and highlight unique and valuable features of our program by conducting interviews with past STEMAP trainees. We had multiple meetings with the Sci-Comm team throughout this process, and they took the time to go through several iterations of the design process until we had products with which we were completely satisfied!

I was so inspired by Futurum’s concept to provide open-access education on STEM topics to the global student community and was tremendously impressed with the creative way the team incorporated not only my research but the research and words of encouragement (advice) from the young scientists I mentor.

The Sci-Comm team was absolutely lovely to work with. They stayed within their quoted cost, always met deliverable deadlines, shared a clear timeline, worked independently while responding well to feedback, kept us updated on progress, and delivered outstanding final products. We felt listened to throughout the whole design and development process and would highly recommend their work to others looking to create informative marketing materials for a program or project.
