The Netherlands Electron Microscopy Infrastructure (NEMI) announces the 2022 Photo Competition. Submit your best EM visual through this form.
This is a chance to showcase the stunning beauty of EM work!
We welcome a broad range of visuals covering Life and Materials Sciences, and any type of EM technique is acceptable. Visuals may include original, annotated or pseudo-colored EM images, as well as 3D-models generated from EM images and any other visuals generated by EM.
Everyone can join and submit one image per person.
Pictures will be judged by a miscellaneous panel for their visual impact.
There are prizes for the top-3 images and the best 12 images will be used in the 2023 NEMI calendar. Winners will be announced mid-november.
Please go and find your best pictures and spread the word among your contacts and interested parties!
Deadline for submission: October 31st 2022
