SCIENTIFIC VISUALIZATION
Mapping the endometrium
The cover artwork shows the endometrium represented as a garden cycling through the seasons: first the stems and foliage grow, then bloom, and ultimately die and wither away before the cycle starts again. These phases in the garden year represent the proliferative, secretory and menstrual phases of the endometrium, which is explored using single-cell analysis.
