Understanding more about health at all these levels will improve people’s lives by finding better ways to promote wellbeing and prevent and treat disease. Professor Bill Spence, Vice Principal (research) said: “Our Life Sciences researchers are doing wonderful work, ranging across all our disciplines. This year’s themes were: health and wellbeing, health and technology, and beauty in medicine. The Life Science Image Awards are an opportunity for staff and students to present their artistic perspective on the world of life sciences. The Life Sciences Institute (LSI) is a multidisciplinary endeavour that promotes interdisciplinary research in the life sciences across our three Faculties: Humanities and Social Sciences, Medicine and Dentistry, and Science and Engineering. It was a nice experience being a part of the awards, it was really impressive how so many different pictures came together.” The wonder of exploration and discovery I’m very happy about winning, the competition was of very high standard. I find it very inspiring to appreciate the details in the objects we use every day and that is why I took the picture. Macro photography is a tool to explore a world that we interact with every day, but rarely take the time to observe. Mr Papadopoulos said: “The photograph of this scalpel blade, that is used every day in medicine and dentistry, illustrates that beauty is all around us, even with the most simple of things.Ī detailed photograph can make almost anything look beautiful just by appreciating the lines and geometry of an object. Ioannis Papadopoulos, studying at Barts and the London School of Medicine and Dentistry was the overall winner of the competition for his photograph entered into the ‘beauty in medicine’ category.
