About us

Our History

Mission Science is a female‑led partnership built on decades of experience in translating complex research into clear, accurate visual communication. For over 25 years combined, we’ve worked across scientific communication and animation – one of us building trusted relationships with researchers, the other leading creative and production delivery. Together, we developed a reputation for turning complex ideas into visuals that inform, engage, and create impact.

Over time, we noticed a pattern we could no longer ignore: women’s health research was consistently under‑represented in the projects we supported. Despite the quality and importance of the work, it rarely received the same attention, funding, or communication effort as other scientific fields.

We founded Mission Science to change that. Our history in animation gives us the technical expertise; our commitment to women’s health gives us purpose. By combining both, we offer researchers something rare; a team that not only understands the rigour of scientific communication, but is dedicated solely to elevating women’s health research with clarity, care, and impact.

The Founders

Kate Rossiter

Kate brings a warm, collaborative approach to every project, building strong relationships with researchers who want their work to reach the people it’s meant to help. Her own experience of navigating chronic pain without clear answers drives her commitment to making women’s health research accessible, accurate and genuinely impactful.

With almost two decades of experience supporting academic teams, Kate specialises in turning complex, sensitive topics into clear, engaging visual stories. She has collaborated with leading universities across world, as well as groups such as the World Health Organisation and Manchester City FC.

When not at work, Kate is mainly at the beach playing frisbee with her beloved high-energy cockapoo.

Hannah Fraser

Han is an animation producer with over a decade of expertise in animation production, science communication, video marketing and project management. Han specialises in producing and creating accessible, engaging visual content for academics and research organisations, simplifying complex ideas through visual impactful animation.

Han truly looks at the full picture when building communication content from start to finish to ensure that it always delivers its powerful messages and creates impact.

Outside of work, like Kate, Han is truly dedicated to being with her miniature dachshund, Missy

OUR TEAM

At Mission Science, we bring together a talented and diverse team of women’s health science writers, animators, and 3D generalists to create engaging, accessible science communication content that creates an impact. 

  • Women’s Health Specialist Writers

    Our science writers specialise in women’s health, crafting stories that make complex research approachable and compelling for any audience. With expertise spanning fields in women’s health such as fertility, menopause, pregnancy, as well as breast health to name a few, our writers translate cutting-edge research into clear, accurate, and relatable narratives. Whether breaking down the intricacies of women’s health issues and how this is communicated or not well enough as the case maybe, our writers have a deep understanding of storytelling's power to inspire and educate.

  • Animators & 3D Generalists

    Our animators and 3D generalists excel in creating visually stunning health content that communicates ideas with precision and creativity. They have extensive experience in the medical communication field, developing animations for healthcare providers, pharmaceutical companies, and public health campaigns. Beyond medicine, their work also spans broader science topics, from environmental awareness to physics simulations. With a keen eye for visual storytelling, they ensure that every frame contributes to the narrative, making even the most complex subjects engaging and easy to grasp.

    Together, our team understands the unique balance of scientific rigor and creativity required to tell meaningful stories impactful for everyone.
