Logos

Unless you have an approved secondary logo for your department, division or unit (you may inquire via a form on the UF brand website), please use the official UF College of Medicine logo. Do not alter this logo in any way, such as distorting the dimensions, cropping, changing the colors or adding/deleting text.

To download the logos, right click on the thumbnail and select “Save Image As.” This logo is an image file and may not reproduce clearly at larger scale in some print materials, however, the logo is already embedded in some of the various materials and templates provided on this page. If you would like an EPS version of the logo for print purposes, please contact the communications team.

Visual abstract templates

Visual abstracts are a visual way, using illustrations, icons and flow-chart graphics, to present the abstract of your research paper. They tend to provide this information in a single “slide,” relying more on imagery than on text to communicate the overall goal and outcomes of your research.

UF Health Communications has prepared a series of templates that will provide a starting point from which you can customize your own visual abstracts for publisher submission, social media posts and more. Each template contains an example along with a generic version you can use to integrate your own data.

Social media

Maintaining a social media channel requires planning, enough resources to devote to frequent updates (a few times a week, minimum), and formal approval from UF Health Communications to become an official account. Launching a channel may not be worthwhile if you are trying to reach a small segment.

A few College of Medicine social media accounts target broader public audiences. Be sure to follow these accounts and share content as you wish.
