Logan Weihe is a biomedical illustrator, designer and interactive developer that recently earned her Master of Science degree in Biomedical Visualization at the University of Illinois at Chicago. Logan is from Louisville, Kentucky and attended Murray State University to complete her Bachelor of Science degree in Fine Art/Studio Art, with a focus in oil painting, and a biology minor.
Logan is interested in translating her traditional fine art skills into digital visual solutions through explorations in graphic design, illustration and interactive development. She has highly specialized training in illustration, 3D modeling, interactive development and graphic design, all through the lens of medical science and healthcare. In addition to artistic training, Logan is trained in the medical and life sciences including cadaver dissection, surgical observation and molecular exploration to inform and drive her visualizations. She has experience in creating anatomical, molecular, editorial, surgical, educational and advertising illustrations. Additionally, Logan has experience in designing interactive biomedical games as well as augmented reality and virtual reality applications used in the healthcare field. She is just completed her project research involving the iterative development of an interactive educational application used to train non-specialist clinicians in basic musculoskeletal medicine and the diagnosis of Osteoarthritis.
Logan strives to create materials that help people feel comfortable and connected with their health and their bodies. No matter the medium, she hopes to inspire viewers/users to become fascinated with themselves and to see their own bodies as something remarkable in their intricacy and execution of thousands of processes. Logan remains curious about the seemingly endless problems that the human body can solve, and works towards understanding its limitations both physically and mentally. She works to use her unique skillset and positive energy to produce interactive experiences and visualizations that allow complex scientific information to seem more accessible and entrancing to a wide range of audiences.
