2024 Competition Now Closed

Thank you for all of your fantastic entries!
We are in the process of creating a shortlist of the finalists

—————————————————————

Pareidolia – the human ability to see shapes or make pictures out of randomness…

Have you found a face in your fluorescence?

Discovered a dragon in your dendrites?

Spotted a spider in your synapses?

Glimpsed a goblin in your gastrula?

If you’ve spotted an image of something else inside a fluorescence image, then send it to us using the form below.
After the competition closes, we will whittle all entries down to the finalists, and will then put the vote out to the general public to decide on who wins!

How to enter – the rules are simple!

Light microscopy images only

You can select colours, but we cannot accept images manipulated in Photoshop etc.

Include your name, organisation and chosen image title (and any other info you want to include)

Closing date for entries is 30th November 2024
