BioRender
by Silvana Martini 28 Feb '25

28 Feb '25

Hi all, I just wanted to remind everybody that FST paid for the license of BioRender for 100 seats. We currently have a little bit over 30 people. Everybody in the department can use this tool (faculty, students, post-docs, staff). If you are not familiar with BioRender, it is a platform to create professional science figures and diagrams. It can be used for presentations, graphical abstracts, and even posters! If you are like me, with little to no imagination and arts skills, this is a great tool! If you are interested in having access to BioRender through FST, please send an e-mail to Susie and she will add you to the platform. Thanks, Silvana [University of Nebraska – Lincoln] Silvana Martini, PhD Professor, Department Head University of Nebraska-Lincoln Food Science & Technology Lincoln, NE 402-472-5267 Editor-in-Chief, Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://aocs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/15… > Fellow of the American Oil Chemists' Society Past President of the American Oil Chemists' Society (2022-2023)<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.aocs.org__;!!PvXuogZ4sRB2p-tU!F0LWn2… >
