Overview

We were joined by more than 1,500 Principal Investigators and Senior Scientists, who served as expert judges across 8 life science fields. Using a set of leading visual design criteria and scientific expertise, judges selected the top entries and together donated thousands of hours of their time.

In total, we gave out over 100 awards totaling over $50,000 USD.
You can see all of the winning entries here.

While the contest deadline has passed, you can continue to explore submissions and engage with the scientists that created them. What's more, we'll soon be releasing entries as editable templates in BioRender, so stay tuned for updates!
