Edinburgh International Science Festival visitors vote for the best images As in previous years, the School of Chemistry organised an image competition as part of their drop-in activities “Computer-powered Chemistry” at the Edinburgh International Science Festival from 11th-15th April 2019. Research-related images taken by the members of the School were displayed at the National Museum of Scotland in the course of 5 days on the theme of “Abstract Chemistry”. The images were captured using different techniques including phone cameras, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), cryo-focused ion beam-SEM, scanning electrochemical microscopy, and PyMOL. The winners of the competition were selected by the visitors at the festival. After counting the votes, the three winners are: German Soto (1st), Ugne Mitrikeviciute (2nd), and Laura Machado de los Toyos (3rd). Congratulations to the winners, and a special thank you to all contestants who have made an important contribution towards broadcasting the School’s research outside the academic world. First place, German Soto from the Neil Robertson group for his photograph titled "Luminescence through the Funnel" Second place, Ugne Mitrikeviciute from the Andy Mount group for her scanning electrochemical microscopy image titled "An Eye to the Future" Third place, Laura Machado de los Toyos from the Fabio Nudelman group for her cryo-focused ion beam-SEM image titled "A balancing Act" Publication date 01 May, 2019
