Design

At BioFigR, the design process is tailored to meet your specific research needs while ensuring the highest quality output. We start by working with data in Excel, CSV, or TSV formats—ensuring your data is properly formatted for optimal analysis. Please note that FASTQ reads or raw sequencing files are not required at this stage; we will focus on the processed data for efficient analysis.

​

Our bespoke approach includes selecting the right colour schemes for your figures, especially in distinguishing key elements like controls versus treatments or increases versus decreases across different conditions. We collaborate with you to ensure the colour choices are both aesthetic and scientifically effective, making your results easier to interpret.

​

For projects requiring multiple figures, we offer a multipanel layout design. Each panel will be clearly labelled (e.g., (A), (B), (C)) and structured around a common theme or main analysis, providing a cohesive representation of your data. Whether it's bar plots, heatmaps, or PCA plots, we ensure that the layout tells a clear and compelling story.

​

Throughout the process, revisions are welcomed. We understand that designing the perfect figure is a collaborative effort, and we will work closely with you to make adjustments at every step, ensuring the final output aligns with your vision.

​

The final output will be provided as high-quality PDF vector images, along with all accompanying R code for transparency and reproducibility. This allows you to review, make edits, or adapt the code for future work, ensuring that your figures evolve alongside your research.
