This blog is having a stem cell image contest.
Submit your favorite, original photomicrographs of stem cells.
Prizes include a $100 gift card, cool stem cell logo t-shirts (see at left), and signed copies of my book, Stem Cells: An Insider’s Guide.
First place wins one each of the above, while second and third place winners get the book and a t-shirt. I may add other prizes as well.
Rules
Images must be submitted to me by email at [email protected]

By submission you agree to allow this blog the right to publish the image here.
You must include a complete, detailed description of what we are seeing in the image, and a description of the methods used (the cells, the antibodies or stains if any, the scope, etc).
Modified images are allowed, but a detailed description of any and all modifications of the image/photo must be included and excessive modification is discouraged.
