NIH is accepting submissions for artistic and eye-catching images and videos in the 2019 BRAIN Initiative Show Us Your BRAINS! Cool Picture & Video Contest.
Neuroscience has come a long way since the hand drawings of Ramόn y Cajal. Yet, images, and now videos, continue to capture the wonder and beauty inherent to the exploration of the brain. Regardless of discipline, career stage, or funding source, we invite all those engaged in the BRAIN Initiative to enter your coolest, most artistic, and eye-catching images (1-10 MB) and short videos (<30 s) in the 2019 BRAIN Initiative Show Us Your BRAINS! Cool Picture & Video Contest.
NIH will accept submissions up until 5p.m. on Friday, March 22nd, 2019. The 2019 Program Committee for the 5th Annual BRAIN Initiative Investigators Meeting will review submissions and select the 20 entries that they feel capture the creative spirit of the BRAIN Initiative. On April 5th, the finalists will be posted online for public voting. The top 3 photos and top 3 videos will be announced on Saturday, April 13th at the 5th Annual BRAIN Initiative Investigators Meeting – WITH PRIZES!!
Along with your submission, please provide your name, institution, email address, a brief title (<50 characters), and a short caption (<150 characters) for your entry. You do not need to attend the 5th Annual BRAIN Investigators Meeting to enter or win. We can’t wait to see your pics!
