Researchers at the University of Notre Dame are invited to submit nominations for one of three available imaging awards from the Integrated Imaging Facility (NDIIF). The Best Imaging Award Program was created to recognize faculty, students, and staff who utilize state-of-the-art equipment available through the Integrated Imaging Facility to create scientific images for research publications, as well as those that are simply beautiful from an artistic perspective.
“Each year, we utilize this award program to acknowledge the work and time our NDIIF users invest in their research and therefore our facility,” said Bradley D. Smith, director of the NDIIF and Emil T. Hofman Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry. “I encourage all of the faculty and researchers who have utilized our tools and equipment across campus to nominate a colleague or even their own images from 2018 for one of our awards.”
There are three different awards available through the Best Imaging Award Program this year:
- Best Electron Microscopy Publication Imaging Award;
- Best Biological Publication Imaging Award;
- Best Artistic Image Award.
Research projects that include cross-discipline collaborations are encouraged but not required for nominations. Consideration is also given to publications whose work utilized multiple facets of the Integrated Imaging Facility.
The deadline to submit nominations is Friday, April 12, 2019 at 5:00 p.m. EST. For details about eligibility requirements and more, please visit https://imaging.nd.edu/about/imaging-award/.
