The National Biofilms Innovation Centre (NBIC) is excited to announce two national photography competitions. ‘Biofilms in Real Life’ and ‘Biofilms in the Lab’.
Launched earlier in the year the competitions run through to 31 May 2021. A diverse panel of judges will take into account creativity, originality, composition, imagination used, scientific value and the overall artistic impression. Amazon gift cards will be awarded to first, second and third place in both competitions.
Full details of how to take part in the competitions and supporting resources can be found on the NBIC website.
The two photo competitions form part of NBIC’s #BiofilmAware campaign, which works to raise awareness of NBIC and its research, and the many societal and economic impacts of biofilms. The ‘Biofilms in Real Life’ competition is open to members of the public, researchers, academics, students and amateur photographers, whilst ‘Biofilms in the Lab’ offers an opportunity for scientists and researchers to submit images from their cutting-edge research.
If you’re interested in supporting NBIC’s competition or campaign, a range of resources are available via NBIC’s #BiofilmAware campaign hub.
You can also contact Natasha Nater, NBIC’s Communications Manager, for further information.
