The Olympus Cup National Confocal Microscopic-image Competition, the first of its kind in China, lifted its curtain in Beijing on November 1. Olympus (China) Co. Ltd. is the competition s sole sponsor and the organizer is www.sciencenet.cn. The mission of this competition is to improve Chinese technicians' imaging skills using microscopes, promote the application of confocal microscope imaging technologies in pioneering industries and enhance communication and cooperation between researchers.
"Innovation, ingenuity and creation" are the competition's themes. The event is different from the more familiar photography exhibitions. All entries are images taken with confocal microscopes, one- and two-photon or spinning-disk microscopes. The works are assessed for their aesthetic value as well as their scientific worth. As the world's leading microscope manufacturer, Olympus is offering full technical assistance during this competition. To ensure that scientific standards are applied and more people take part, the competition invited experts in the field to be judges and launched an official website at micro image. sciencenet.cn to interact with the public.,
Netizens can vote online while admiring the competition s microscopic images. The event is novel in terms of its rules, artistic angle and presentation of imaging sciences.
Many audience members cannot help asking, "Is this really a microscopic photo?" upon seeing pictures of cells that are reminiscent of avant-garde paintings. In most people's memory, middle school biology class microscopes yielded blurry images of cells through their eyepieces. But those traditional microscopes, which were invented about a century ago, are no longer used for scientific research. The development trend in modern, microscopy focuses on simplified telescope operating procedures and digit
