Brain Research Image Contest

2019 is Brain Canada’s 20th anniversary!

In honour of this important milestone, we are launching a Brain Research Image Contest. 

Send us your best images that visually depict the many facets of brain research.  The images must be high resolution and illustrate neuroscience research: 2D and 3D microscopy images, neuroimaging, brain reconstructions, etc.  The contest is open to all lab members of Brain Canada funded projects (researchers, technicians, trainees, students, etc.). 

We will select three winners to receive a cash prize of $200, $100, $75 (for first, second and third place). Each applicant can submit a maximum of 3 images, along with a one-sentence caption for each. The images must be free of labels and should be in JPEG, PNG or TIFF format. Images can be submitted via email using Dropbox or Google Drive links. 

By entering the contest, the applicants agree to assign the rights of the images to Brain Canada, and grants Brain Canada permission to use the images in any media (including digital and printed). Authors will be acknowledged when their images are used.

The deadline for submission is April 26th, 2019. Please submit the required information by email to media@braincanada.ca. The winners will be announced in May.
