ABOUT THE COMPETITION
The
competition showcases the variety of research being conducted
within the Medical School, encourages excellence in scientific image
generation, stimulates interest in the relationship between science
and art, and highlights the poster production facilities
available at Ninewells. The competition is open to staff (all grades)
and
postgraduate students of the Medical School.
Entries are judged on originality, informational content, technical proficiency, and visual impact. Images must reflect research within the Medical School. All aspects of ongoing research are eligible. Entries may be either single images or composites, colour or monochrome. Possible examples might include: micrographs illustrating cellular processes, time lapse montages, computer tomography, molecular structures, images reflecting clinically oriented research, etc. but this is by no means an exhaustive list. Imaginative and inventive means of communicating our medical research are encouraged.
