Robert Custer

Tavo Montañez's portrait illustration for Science News, accompanies a feature on gambling researcher Robert Custer and his legacy in addiction studies.

The piece illustrates Robert Custer for a Science News article exploring why, despite his influence on gambling disorder research, he is less widely recognised than other figures in the field.

It sits alongside Judith Lavelle’s reporting, which reflects on legacy, visibility and how certain contributions are remembered over time.

Tavo’s portrait includes subtle gambling references and acts as a strong visual lead for the feature.
