To mask or not to mask, This is the question
With COVID-19 the world has become one big Petri dish. Recognised as an infectious virus with high morbidity rates so far, experts, governments and organisations try to use existing knowledge of infectious diseases to contain the spread & ensure that populations remain healthy & safe. Wearing a mask in public for exampe at the supermarket, has been imposed as a measure in many countries around the world. And science has done its duty and studied what happens when we wear and when we don't wear a mask. This poster aims to navigate the question: to mask or not to mask?

Abstract required
Raynaud's disease, beyond white fingers.
Raynaud's disease is a complex and poorly defined phenomenon. While its most well-known symptom is whitening of the fingers when hands are exposed to cold, the anatomical reasons behind this phenomenon are more difficult to pinpoint. There are currently several identified risk factors and few recognized effective treatments.
