Images of microscopic structures produced by staff from the School of Pharmacy, University of London, have again earned awards for their creators.
Multimedia unit supervisor Annie Cavanagh and experimental officer David
McCarthy won three prizes in the Biomedical Image Awards 2006 hosted
by the Wellcome Trust. The images are colour-enhanced scanning electron
micrographs of aspirin crystals, human colon cancer cells in culture
and a human embryonic stem cell growing on a layer of fibroblasts. They
are on display at the Wellcome
Library in London.
The winning images were selected from those submitted to the Wellcome
Medical Photographic Library over the past year.
Earlier this year, Ms Cavanagh and Mr McCarthy won first prize in a competition
organised by the UK Micro and Nanotechnology Network (PJ, 1 April, p376).
Mr McCarthy has also won awards in the Novartis/Daily Telegraph Visions
of Science photographic awards (PJ, 8 October 2005, p429 and PJ, 9 October
2004, p508). |
