Image Competition
Call for Beauty/Image/Microscopy Enthusiasts!
Are you passionate about art and fascinated by neuroscience?
This year, we invite you to showcase your knowledge and creativity by submitting your best images related to neuroscience and brain health to be evaluated by an expert jury. Your job is to create and submit a visually pleasing image based on real biological material.
You can submit your images in two categories:
- Imaging art: images created with any microscopic or imaging technique
- Any other type of art related to neuroscience (e.g. electrophysiology, behaviour, computer science, molecular biology, laboratory life, etc.)
The authors of the best three images of both categories will be awarded, and the winner pictures will be exhibited during the HuNDoC and International Neuroscience Conference.
Submission guidelines:
- Image size must be smaller than 50 MB.
- AI generated images are not permitted
- Please add a short description containing:
- Title of your image
- Imaging technique (i.e.: type of microscope used)
- Labeling or staining method (in case of “Imaging art”)
- Biological sample or material imaged
- Designate if image processing (Photoshop, false coloring, etc) was used, and send the original image as well.
- Accepted formats: tif, png or jpg
- Minimum resolution 300 dpi
When submitting an image to us, please write your name, affiliation and level (BSc/MSc/PhD). We welcome all types of microscopic and scientific images.
