Intersection Image Contest Winner
Posted by the Node, on 4 April 2011
Congratulations to Stéphane Vincent of the IGBMC in Illkirch, France, who won the Node’s intersection image competition:
His image showing staining of a gut section of a E17.5 mouse embryo impressed the judges as well as the Node’s readers, receiving more than half of the votes.
Stéphane says: “I took this picture by chance: I was looking at the expression of Sox6 and slow Myosin Heavy Chain in the deep back muscles of a mutant mouse embryo and I saw this very nice “I” popping out in the gut tube… “
With this serendipitous image he has won a TipArt commission, and we hope we’ll get to see the final artwork he receives. In addition, Stéphane’s image will be used in a little project we’re working on to mark the Node’s upcoming first birthday in June.

Lovely image, congratulations. Biology can be so beautiful.
I’m looking forward to the first birthday celebrations!
This is the most gorgeous image. Definitely worthy of its own month!
