IMMPress Magazine

In this issue of IMMpress, the interconnectedness of international research is visually represented in a chord diagram resembling earth. A chord diagram is commonly used to illustrate the inter-relationships between entities, with each arc bridging from one point to another to demonstrate their connection. As depicted, research does not occur in isolation; it is intricately connected to not only other research nodes, but the broader world. In a way, we are all integral parts of a larger network of effort aimed at creating a better world for everyone.
