Stem cells image competition: the result

Posted by , on 13 April 2013

The results of the latest image competition, this time featuring five beautiful stem cell images, are in! In what rapidly turned into a two horse race between the corn snake dental organ, and the  mouse hippocampus, it was the confocal image of the adult mouse hippocampus that eventually came out on top.

Taken by Lulu Xing of the University of Melbourne and titled “The Garden of Memory”, this striking  image will be appearing on a cover of Development in the coming weeks.

Many thanks to all who submitted an image for this competition – especially those who made the Final Five – and to everyone who voted. You’ve definitely proved that stem cells can be just as visually stunning as the tissues, organs and organisms you’re more used to seeing on the cover of the journal!
