2021 Contest Winners

The images that you create through your research not only advance discovery, but they offer a glimpse of a world that is not often seen. Once again, we are impressed not only by the artistic presentations of all contest entries but by the scientific merit and diversity of study they represent. Thank you for taking the time to share your work with us.

Selecting only 10 winners from our US entries and 10 winners from our UK entries was a difficult task, and we thank all participants.
