3rd Annual NIHR GOSH BRC Image Competition - A Moment of Discovery
1 Nov 2023, noon
The Research and Innovation Communications team at GOSH and the NIHR GOSH Biomedical Research invite you to enter our Research and Innovation Showcase: A Moment of Discovery.
Do you regularly use microscopy that not only furthers your research but also produces beautiful and intriguing science images that you’d love to share? Or maybe your research generates data, imagery, or short videos? Perhaps you use photography or draw illustrations to capture what discovery means to you at GOSH?
We’re looking for impactful images, photos, GIFs, short videos or illustrations that highlight any aspect of the amazing research, innovation and discovery that happens across GOSH and our affiliated institutions.
The deadline for submissions is 5pm on the 3rd December.
Shortlisted entries and winner selection
Following a shortlisting process individual winning entries will be selected by stakeholder panels.
All shortlisted and winning entries will all be featured on the GOSH website, social media channels and external content about the competition.
The selection of shortlisted entries will also be featured in displays at GOSH as part of research and innovation celebration events!
Previous winners and shortlisted entrants have featured in news articles as well as Nature’s Image of the Month (and year!). The winning team from last year’s competition were also recently awarded the Royal Photographic Society Combined Colleges Award “in recognition of sustained excellence or a notable contribution to the advancement and/or application of medical photography or medical imaging”
Please do get rifling through those ‘favourite’ folders, check with any relevant supervisor, complete the online form and send your entries to research.communications@gosh.nhs.uk.
If you are submitting photography or video entries, please ensure that you have consent of everyone in the shot and please do not include any identifiable patient photography.
While we’d love to get back to everyone, we will be in contact with shortlisted entries by the end of December 2023.
