UMB offers access and/or support for a number of possible tools and resources for research as well as research career support programs. In many cases there may be access to the tool but limited local support - in which case users will need to seek support from the company who created the tool, their user forums, YouTube, AI or etc. as opposed to through an SSW or UMB entity.
The Secure Research Environment (SRE) provides access to many of the needed tools and in a secure environment. On this page, you will be shown resources to help you get the support you need for the SRE.

Canva - an easy-to-use, online graphic design platform that allows users with or without design experience to create a wide variety of visual content using a simple drag-and-drop interface and professional templates.
CoPilot - create prompts to have CoPilot help analyze and/or display data visually.
PiktoChart - not provided by UMB, but some folks use it for generating graphics.
Amy Yarnell in HSHSL also offers trainings on data visualization in R and can be contacted for trainings.
HSHSL Data Viz Services
HSHSL Data Viz Services
For more extensive work, the HSHSL Center for Data and Bioinformation Services offers a Data Viz service for producing visualizations for grants and publications. This service is eligible for ICTR voucher support. They can probably take on about one or two of these projects a semester, depending on complexity. The service includes Amy Yarnell and our library’s graphic designer, Thom Pinho. They typically use R (Amy) and Adobe products like InDesign (Thom). They can also provide some of the data wrangling needed to complete the visualization if necessary.
