Infographics

Several infographics have been created to accompany EAVE II's high-impact and high-interest papers to provide a brief overview of their key findings and results. These images can now be downloaded as high-quality PDF documents.

The following infographics are available to download.

The infographics have a standard size of 1600x900 pixels. Each infographic accompanies a summary in plain English of an EAVE II research paper. Links to both the summary and paper are provided below each image.

As infographics are only designed to provide snapshot insights of our work, we ask that when re-distributing these images that links to either the full research paper or summary in plain English are also made available. This is so greater context on the work that was carried out.

If you wish to reuse or alter our infographics for commercial or professional purposes, please email us at usher.communications@ed.ac.uk to find out more about our terms and conditions.
