Calling all members of the Queen’s community – voting is now open for the ’People’s Choice’ category of the third annual Art of Research photo contest.

The contest’s goal is to creatively capture the research process across disciplines and demonstrate the importance of research at the local, national and international levels. This year’s contest was open to faculty, staff, students and alumni, and dozens of creative and thought-provoking entries were received.

This year, along with winners selected in the categories of ‘Community Collaborations,’ ‘Invisible Discoveries,’ ‘Out in the Field,’ ’Art in Action’ and ‘Best Description,’ a prize of $500 will be awarded to the ’People’s Choice’ image. Images selected for the ‘People’s Choice’ vote were entries that generated discussion and were shortlisted by the adjudication committee.

A preview of this year’s ’People’s Choice’ selection can be seen in the slideshow below. Images vary in subject and location, but they each convey a unique story of discovery.

The voting closes on March 20 at 4 pm. Visit the survey to vote for your favorite image.
