An exhibition showcasing the range of research at University College Dublin is to travel to Brussels for a European Union Information Centre event after its Dublin run closes this Friday.

Gallery: Some images from the exhibition

Its stated aim is to call attention to some of the most innovative and imaginative images conveying the depth and range of research taking place at UCD.

Images of Research started in 2006 as an initiative of Research at UCD.

Since then there have been over 1,650 entries to the competition from postdoctoral fellows, postgraduate students, final year undergraduate students, research technicians and the staff of UCD’s affiliated teaching hospitals.

Each year 12 images are shortlisted by a panel of UCD staff and external judges from the arts and science.

It offers researchers the opportunity to submit compelling digital images and awards those with the best visual portrayal of some aspect of their research across science, engineering, humanities, business and the arts.
