Medical animators pour their passion for communication into helping people at their most vulnerable. A relatable intro in a medical animation invites viewers to step into the patient’s shoes.

In our latest blog post, we share how 3D animation videos enhance patient education.

All of us will become patients at some time in our lives. A 3D animation video can help to clarify concepts surrounding a patient’s treatment in ways that words alone cannot convey.

From visual learning to narrative storytelling, we break down how qualified medical animators enhance patient education in our latest blog post.

Our calendar image for November depicts the JAK-STAT signalling pathway, which contributes to various inflammatory dermatologic diseases; for some people, dry winter weather isn't the sole cause of skin conditions.

Overactive JAK-STAT signalling via inflammatory cytokines can cause skin conditions such as alopecia areata, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, or vitiligo. Looking ahead, there is research in development to inhibit JAK-STAT signalling, leading to new treatments.

We're thrilled to share some exciting news: "The Science Behind Birch Triterpene Extract" has received an Award of Excellence from the Association of Medical Illustrators!

We developed this 3D medical animation in collaboration with a client to effectively illustrate how Birch Triterpenes can impact wound healing in a rare, inherited condition characterized by fragile, blistering skin.

It was an honor to contribute to such a meaningful project, and this award is a wonderful recognition of our team's expertise in scientific communication.

The Association of Medical Illustrators (ami.org) is recognized as the premier global resource for promoting the power of visual media to advance scientific understanding, communication, education, and research.

In recognition of Pain Awareness Month 2025, our September AXS Studio calendar image depicts a voltage-gated sodium, or Nav, channel in the membrane of a nerve cell.

Nav channels are large proteins that enable the transmission of pain signals along nerve fibers in the peripheral nervous system. Because this is outside of the brain and spinal cord—the central nervous system, where opioid drugs work—Nav channels are a potential target for a new class of non-opioid pain drugs now in development.

The yellow bits in the picture are sodium ions rapidly entering a nerve cell through an open Nav channel (green). Drugs targeting Nav channels prevent them from opening and thereby stopping the flow of a pain signal.

Our August AXS Studio calendar image features a 3D medical illustration of skin affected by seborrheic dermatitis (SD). Although SD is uncertain, interactions between the skin’s lipids, microbiome, and the immune system contribute to its development. The pink objects are Malassezia, a type of yeast normally found on skin that can contribute to SD. This image is part of a larger illustration summarizing the known contributors to this common skin disease.
