Using research from internal medicine specialist, Dr. Deborah Korenstein and sociologist Dr. Susan Chimonas, we created an alluvial diagram which traces the relationships between the pharmaceutical industry and various stakeholders and activities in medicine. The visualization illustrates the complex and profuse interrelationships that may ultimately impact prescribing between the doctor and patient. Done in collaboration with designer Renee Walker.
