The Academy of Translational Medicine (ATOM) branding project reimagines medicine as both an ancient art and a modern science. Drawing inspiration from pre-modern notions of alchemy and the enduring symbolism of the serpent-entwined staff, the identity blends tradition with innovation. The black-and-white palette and atmospheric graphic treatments create a sense of timelessness, while the interplay of sleek serif and contemporary tech-inspired typography positions ATOM as both scholarly and forward-thinking. This brand celebrates the transformative “magic” at the heart of medicine, honoring its history while illuminating its future.
