The Royal Microscopical Society announced it is launching its 2004 International Micrograph Competition. Winning entries will be chosen by a panel of scientists and will be displayed at MicroScience 2004, to be held July 6-8 in London. Life and materials microscopists may submit more than one entry, and there will be first, second and third prizes for the best light and electron microscopy micrographs. The deadline for entries is June 30. Submit micrographs to exhibitions@rms.org.uk, or send images on CD to: RMS International Micrograph Competition, Royal Microscopical Society, 37/38 St Clements, Oxford, OX4 1AJ, UK. Each entry should include a short description of the subject matter and a brief description of the microscope setup used. For more information, visit: www.microscience2004.org.uk . . .
