When science converges with art....

Science and art converge in the Visions of Science competition.Pretty amzing photos of stuff.

Blue ink diffusing into water takes on the appearance of jubilant figures with raised arms, as if in prayer.

What is Visions of Science?

Visions of Science is a photographic awards scheme organised by Novartis Pharmaceuticals to encourage ongoing discussion about science.

So, what is a Vision of Science? To the judges of the Awards, a Vision of Science is an attention-grabbing image that gives new insight into the world of science and the workings of nature. It may show something never seen before, it may explain a scientific phenomenon, it may illustrate scientific data or it may simply be an image that shows the beauty of science.

The panel of judges remains a sound mix of scientists, photographers and picture editors.

Visions of Science is organised by Novartis Pharmaceuticals. The Daily Telegraph is the key media partner. The category prize money of £7,000, together with support and advice comes from the Science Photo Library. Special awards this year have been sponsored by the Institute of Physics, the BMJ, Science Learning Centres and Kodak Ltd.
