Science and Engineering's most powerful statements are not made from
words alone. From the diagrams of DaVinci to Rosalind Franklin's x-rays,
visualization of research has a long and literally illustrious history.
The National Science Foundation (NSF) and The American Association for
the Advancement of Science (AAAS) created the International Science and
Engineering Visualization Challenge to encourage the connection between
scientists and the public. The spirit of the competition is for
communicating science, engineering and technology for education and
journalistic purposes. The entry deadline is 15 September 2009.
Judges appointed by the National Science Foundation and the journal
Science will select winners in each of five categories: photographs,
illustrations, informational graphics, interactive media and
non-interactive media. The winners will be published in a special
section of the journal Science, Science Online, and on the NSF website.
One of the winning entries will be on the front cover of Science. In
addition, each finalist will receive a free, one-year print and on-line
subscription to the journal Science and a certificate of appreciation.
