## Meet PoLina! Introducing the PoL Comics

Explore the Physics of Life universe with PoLina, the protagonist of the PoL comic strip! In collaboration with artist [Jon Chad](https://www.jonchad.com/), we have developed 10 comic strips exploring different key biophysics concepts used by our scientists, perfect for curious minds of all ages!

The PoL Comics are being translated into numerous languages thanks to our fantastic volunteers. Stay tuned for more in future!
