DTA Images of Research 2024 

Congratulations to our Images of Research winner, Elisha Doi!

Runners up places were awarded to Kate Marks & Rosie Carr.


During the 2024 DTA Summer School, researchers were asked whether they could summarise their research with a single image?  

DTA PhD students were challenged to submit an image with a short 150-word abstract that represented their research project or topic area for our ‘Images of Research’ competition. 

All entries can be found via the DTA Padlet site


Voters evaluated the images according to the following criteria: 

Title 

  • Is the title engaging and relevant to the image? 
  • Is the title accessible with a clear message for a lay audience? 

Image 

  • Does the image capture a clear message about the essence of the research area? 
  • Does the image entice the viewer to want to ask questions about the project? 

Abstract 

  • Does the abstract adequately explain the image and area of research to a lay audience? 
  • Does the abstract engage, intrigue and inform a lay audience?
