Research Image Competition - £200 prize

It's time to get creative! We are also holding a competition to find the Best Research Image

We want to see images that are a direct result of your research, represent aspects of your work, or show the faces behind your research project. Images will be judged on their quality, visual impact, creativity and ability to communicate and engage people with your research.ÌýFind out more here.Ìý
