showcases, in a personal way, biological research in its many forms and
settings. The images help the public and policymakers better understand the
value of biological research and education. The competition is sponsored by the
Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology in addition to the American
Institute of Biological Sciences (AIBS).</span></p>

effective tool to help communicate the process of scientific research,” said
Scott Glisson, CEO of AIBS. “This
contest provides a visual forum for expression, inspiration, and technical
skill that can have a positive impact on how the public views research and
science.”</span></p>
