TEMPLATE BRIEF

A tumor microenvironment review illustration: a cluster of tumor cells surrounded by cytotoxic T cells, regulatory T cells, M2 macrophages and blood vessels; show PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint signals and nutrient supply from the vasculature. Balanced composition, labeled cell types.

What is this template?

Review illustrations organize a whole research area into one scene — cell types, spatial relationships and signaling axes — giving readers a map before the text takes them through the details.

Where it fits

How to make it yours

  1. Open the template in the studio

    Generate the scene, then check which cell types and signals were included.

  2. Rebalance the cast

    Say "remove the macrophages and add fibroblasts" to match the compartment your review covers.

  3. Highlight your axis

    Ask to emphasize one pathway — e.g. "highlight the hypoxia axis from the vasculature" — while keeping the rest muted.

Frequently asked questions

How dense can the scene get?

Keep it to five or six labeled elements per panel. If your review needs more, ask the editor to split the scene into two panels rather than crowding one.
