Journal of Visual Science and Communication is dedicated to advancing research on the visual representation, understanding, communication, and critical analysis of scientific knowledge, complex data, and technical information. It focuses on the intersections among visualization technologies, information design, visual cognition, and science communication. The journal covers scientific visualization, information visualization, visual communication, digital media, interaction design, medical imaging, art and design research, and science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) education, exploring how visual media facilitate the understanding, exchange, and application of scientific knowledge.

The journal encourages interdisciplinary work combining computational methods, experimental research, design practice, and theoretical analysis. It addresses AI-generated content, interactive visualization, immersive science communication, accessibility and bias in visual information, and knowledge production in art–science collaboration. The journal accepts design research and practice-based research with clear research questions, methodological grounding, and evaluable scholarly contributions, aiming to promote innovation in scientific information expression and deepen understanding of visual cognition, science communication, and interdisciplinary creativity.
