Each year, the Notre Dame Integrated Imaging Facility (NDIIF) recognizes and honors its users through the presentation of its annual Imaging Awards.
The Best Biological Publication Imaging Award will be judged on the basis of a piece of original research in the physical and material sciences involving microscopy. All listed co-authors on the winning awards will be recognized in a news story highlighting the publication and the corresponding author will be presented with a certificate. The designated point of contact/corresponding author will also receive a small honorarium.
