The third EPSRC photo competition is now open for entries. The theme of the competition is ‘research in action’, which could include people involved in or affected by your research, unusual or bizarre images arising from your research or images that reflect new discoveries as a result of your research.
The competition is open to all EPSRC supported researchers and doctoral students.
The overall winner of the competition will be awarded £500 worth of camera / photography equipment. A prize of £150 worth of camera / photography equipment will also be awarded to the winner of each category. Runners up in second and third place of each category will receive £25.00 worth of camera / photography equipment. All winning images will also be featured in EPSRC‘s Pioneer Magazine and other EPSRC publications. The value of prizes may be increased dependent on sponsorship.
The deadline for submissions is 19 December.
