Showcase the brilliance of research at GOSH

Our Image Competition 2024 is now closed

The Research and Innovation Showcase: A Moment of Discovery is now closed for entries.

Hosted by the Research and Innovation Communications team at GOSH and the NIHR GOSH Biomedical Research team, this image competition is in it's fourth year.

Each year, we've asked:

  • Do you use photography or draw illustrations to capture what discovery means to you at GOSH?
  • Do you use microscopy that not only furthers your research but also produces beautiful and intriguing science images that you’d love to share?
  • Does your research generate data, imagery, or short videos?

We look for impactful images, photos, GIFs, short videos or illustrations that highlight any aspect of the amazing research, innovation and discovery that happens across GOSH and our affiliated institutions.
