What is Lifeology?

Lifeology is a mobile-first platform that makes science content fun, beautiful and ultra-accessible using mini illustrated “flashcard” decks that we call Lifeology courses. Lifeology courses are designed to be ultra-accessible, actionable, empathetic, inclusive and story-driven. You can create courses on your own or with our help.

Create custom Lifeology courses that have the power to educate as well as inspire behavior change and increase community trust in science and medicine. Empower individuals and groups to take ownership of their health and medical decisions through scientific understanding.

Science communication and health literacy are at the core of Lifeology’s mission. Our goal is to improve the accessibility, approachability, relatability, inclusiveness and actionability of science and health information for all people. We work to achieve this goal by enabling science and health professionals to create more health literate content for their audiences. The Lifeology platform allows you to create visually engaging, bite-sized and impactful educational materials in collaboration with artists, storytellers, translators, audience reviewers and others.

How it works

Each Lifeology course consists of digital flashcards (20-50 cards per course) that feature bite-sized text and custom art that reflects the language and imagery of the community you want to reach. Users swipe and interact with cards with the touch of a finger. You get insights on learning and other outcomes.

Courses pair simplified messaging and storytelling with art and parse science and health information into bite-sized cards. Topics can include anything related to health or science communication.  For example, we’ve created courses for the Lifeology Library covering the basics of science communication and health literacy, how to counter misinformation, empathy in science and health communication, ethics,heart health, coronavirus, healthy living, genetics and cancer, mental health and more.
