Startling images show strange and beautiful science up close

Abstract

Widening our view of the world can mean taking a much closer look at the familiar. And technology from MRI to Scanning Electron Microscopes, which use focused beams to interact with a sample’s surface to produce nano-sized resolution, is allowing scientists and medical researchers to delve into our strange and beautiful world (sometimes aided with a little Photoshop).

Three academics with winning entries in this year’s Wellcome Image Awards tell us how they got their image.
