In order to recognize the beauty and creativity of artistic renderings emerging from the neuroimaging community, we are launching the third annual Brain-Art Competition.
Countless hours are devoted to the creation of informative visualizations for communicating neuroscientific findings. The Brain-Art Competition aims to recognize this often unappreciated aspect of the publication process, and highlight the artistic creativity of our community.
We are inviting researchers to submit their favorite unpublished works for entry. Both team and single-person entries are welcomed. The competition will have five award categories:
– Best Representation of the Human Connectome – Best Abstract Brain Illustration – Best Humorous Brain Illustration – Best Video Illustration of the Brain – Special Topic: Best Visualization of Probabilistic Connectivity
The 'Special Topic' is a new addition to this year’s competition that highlights an important challenge in current connectomics research: visualizing the uncertainty of 3D connections in tractography and functional connectivity data.
Submission Deadline: 11:59PM CDT, Wednesday, June 5th, 2013
Award Notification: June 17th during the Neuro Bureau gala event, held at the OHBM Annual Meeting in Seattle.
