Brand and communications toolbox

Did you find your way to this section because you’re working on assembling some kind of information material, such as a presentation or brochure? That makes us over the moon! It’s a well-known fact that builders need tools. But it also means that you’re engaged in another, never-ending construction project at SciLifeLab. Building our brand. 

SciLifeLab communications are created, not just by the communications team, but by all of us in the community. All the time. Keeping it cohesive will help others get to know SciLifeLab the same way we wish to perceive ourselves – as a unified center.
