Educating the public about stem cell research requires strong visuals to ensure accurate instruction. As a teaching institution, KUMC is committed to making our illustrations available for others to use in their education efforts.

Illustrations found throughout this web site were created by the KUMC Center for Reproductive Sciences Cell Imaging Core. Below is a list of available images (click on image to view at full size).
