The winners and runner-ups -- in categories including photography, illustration, instructional graphics, and interactive and noninteractive multimedia -- are written up in a collection of articles (accompanied by a slide show) on the Science Web site. There's also information about the competition posted at NSF."

    For those of you who are visual thinkers like me, this is extremely interesting. There are some wonderful pictures available at this site, and they tell you a bit about what happened there as well.
    Excerpt: "This year's winners -- in categories including photography, illustration, instructional graphics, and interactive and noninteractive multimedia -- spanned the gamut, from intricate depictions of events at the cell membrane to the nighttime drama of a sonar-guided bat closing in on its prey."
    It is really nice to see public outreach like this that still retains so much information. They should really give us scientists lessons on how to better do this.
