Marimekko — University Research Income by Faculty and Funder
£160m of annual research grant income by faculty (column width) and funder type (share within faculty): medicine is the largest faculty at 36% and the most charity-dependent at 39%, engineering draws a third of its income from industry, and the arts and humanities column is small but mostly UKRI. Illustrative values.
Marimekko / MosaicChoropleth — Life Expectancy at Birth, World
Period life expectancy at birth, both sexes, for 45 countries: from 54.5 years in NGA to 84.7 in JPN, a thirty-year gap that the ramp makes plain across sub-Saharan Africa against East Asia and western Europe. Suitable for a global-health lecture before the data are swapped for a current WHO or UN release. Illustrative values.
Choropleth (GIS)Choropleth — Participants Randomised by Country, Phase III Trial
Randomisations by country for a fictional global phase III cardiovascular outcomes trial at its enrolment cut-off: 2,463 participants from 29 recruiting countries, led by the USA (412), China (188) and Germany (167); Ukraine and the Philippines are shown at zero because their sites were activated and then closed before randomising. The map a data monitoring committee looks at for regional imbalance. Illustrative values.
