This is a past event.
Scientific research not only broadens our understanding—it can create beautiful images.
Northwestern University's annual Scientific Images Contest celebrates and showcases the breathtaking beauty of the same scientific research that generates new understanding and innovation.
A breadth of scientific fields are represented, from neurobiology and chemistry to engineering and nanotechnology. In essence, the images represent both scientific data and art.
You'll be able to view the images and learn about cutting-edge scientific research. We invite you to enjoy both the beauty and innovation of Northwestern science.
Meet the Researchers!
Saturday, May 5 from 2 to 3:30 p.m.
Talk with Northwestern researchers about their expertise and the science represented in these stunning images.
