Are you a researcher as well as a medical illustrator?
When we list the areas of practice for medical illustrators we always include research, but how involved in research are we? The aim of this activity is to encourage your professional development not just as a medical illustrator but your involvement with research whether that is undertaking your own research, undertaking evidence based practice (1) , working as part of a research team, advising researchers on the value of medical illustration or supporting a student undertaking a research project for their degree or post-graduate qualification
An improved soft X-ray photoionization detector
Photoionization detector with an alumina shell, a beryllium foil window, and a xenon gas fill measures small incident photon fluxes from soft X rays. It has high spectral selectivity and quantum efficiencies, and a long shelf life. It minimizes electrical leakage and recontamination, and will hold a high vacuum

Chiral extrapolations for nucleon magnetic moments
Lattice QCD simulations have made significant progress in the calculation of
nucleon electromagnetic form factors in the chiral regime in recent years. With
simulation results achieving pion masses of order ~180 MeV, there is an
apparent challenge as to how the physical regime is approached. By using
contemporary methods in chiral effective field theory, both the quark-mass and
finite-volume dependence of the isovector nucleon magnetic moment are carefully
examined. The extrapolation to the physical point yields a result that is
compatible with experiment, albeit with a combined statistical and systematic
uncertainty of 10%. The extrapolation shows a strong finite-volume dependence;
lattice sizes of L > 5 fm must be used to simulate results within 2% of the
infinite-volume result for the magnetic moment at the physical pion mass.Comment: 7 pages, 12 figures, 1 tabl
