Founded in 1957 in New York under the name Photo Researchers, this agency quickly established itself as an essential reference in the field of scientific, medical and natural photography. Photo Researchers has built up a vast library of high-quality images, collaborating with prestigious institutions such as MIT, Harvard, the American Museum of Natural History and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. These partnerships have enabled the agency to offer visual content that is both rigorous, educational and aesthetically pleasing, suitable for research, teaching and specialized publishing.
In 2013, Photo Researchers evolved into Science Source, a symbolic name change designed to more accurately reflect its scientific and technological focus. Today, Science Source offers a rich collection of over a million images, illustrations, videos and animations, covering fields ranging from biology and physics to medicine and earth sciences. The agency also works with international partners to enrich and diversify its catalog.
Science Source is aimed primarily at publishers, universities, museums and companies in the medical and pharmaceutical sectors, offering reference images that are essential for the dissemination of knowledge and scientific communication. In addition, it offers photographers and illustrators a dynamic platform for promoting their work, with attractive commissions, particularly in the context of exclusive contracts.
With over 60 years of expertise, Science Source embodies excellence and rigor in the field of scientific illustration, combining technical precision with visual creativity.
