Is there any software or mechanism that I can use to draw graphical abstract? The graphical abstract, as you know, is used to put your article in brief using graphics and it may include process or mechanisms followed in the article. In chemical laboratories, it requires to show it using different laboratory equipment in graphical abstracts. Which software or any mechanism can best help me to do so? Thank you for your unreserved support!
Hello Abi Legesse , I believe graphical abstracts can be useful for the visual communication of research studies to wider audiences. I recommend these two publications that can help you design and develop your own graphical abstracts.

Estimado Abi Legesse
Los software profesionales tales como Adobe Illustrator dan la libertad de crear desde cero, es decir desde la página en blanco. Tal vez sería conveniente que busques algún especialista. Vi que en tu universidad hay gente especializada: Multimedia Journalism (Print/Web & Broadcast Journalism). Espero que te sirva esta información. Saludos cordiales.
