Data Gap

Li Zhang works with Northeastern Global News to illustrate an article on gender imbalance in medical research participation.

Li 's illustration accompanies a feature on the persistent underrepresentation of women in medical research. The article centres on researchers at Northeastern University working to address the gender gap in clinical trials, where female participants remain disproportionately excluded despite making up half the population.

Li's art responds with a composition shaped around the language of medical research and data-driven inquiry, translating a complex institutional issue into a clear visual.
