Hi, I’m working as a bioinformatician in genetics, and one of my colleagues asked me about creating publication-quality figures for a paper. I haven’t seen the data yet, but I’d also like to start making figures for other colleagues in the future, so I’m trying to understand what tools and workflows people actually use for scientific papers. In my previous work as a data analyst, we mostly used Power BI, but I realized it may not be ideal for publication-quality figures. What do you usually use for figures in your papers? What software people use most often? How final figures are assembled? What is considered standard in academia today? Thanks for any tips. submitted by /u/4ndUIK4 [link] [comments]
