Scientific Icons is a central repository of icons for scientific programs, including molecular biology, lab automation, sample tracking, chemistry, biology, physiology, etc. Looking for an icon for a flask, chemical, gene, plate, robot, atom?

This project grew out of a frustration when working on scientific projects and never being able to find a clear icon for a gene, or a plate, etc. Although, many times using a simple "circle" or "dot" works for many applications, creating a user interface for scientific apps often needs distinct representations for many objects. We intend to contact many existing scientific software authors and ask to have their icons committed to this project. These could be gif, jpg, svg, png, etc. Of course, the future seems to be SVG icons which are scalable, but the first step is to open up a collection of icons.

If you would like to help create an online resource for scientific icons, please help by committing your icons to the scientific icons project.
