All competition entries will be displayed and judged during the Autumn Scientific Meeting. Jump straight to how to enter. There are 4 Categories: Marjorie England Dissection Prize An opportunity for IAS members and non-members alike to produce a dissection and to have it considered with others by a panel of experienced Anatomists - the dissection itself must be the sole work of the entrant and may be an animal or a human specimen and will be judged against published criteria, technical and intellectual complexity and usefulness as a teaching aid amongst others. Entry will be by photograph which should be accompanied by an appropriate title.
Fellows Museum Prize Examples of museum preparations for the Fellows Prize include:
The museum preparation may be either a single specimen or multiple specimens which together form a specific museum display. The entire display should be included in the photograph(s) i.e. stand, base, jar, case, display panel etc.
IAS Open Competition This gives entrants the opportunity to display any type of work which they have carried out – this can include anything from the construction of a set of shelves, a set of histology slides, a contribution to posters, publications or books, to the making of a computer programme or a video film. Entry will either be by photograph or presentation of the actual item, e.g. book, poster, video etc. Where the display shows the entrants work as a contribution towards a project – a clear statement must be made, as to the part played by the individuals involved. It may not be possible to keep this category entirely anonymous, but every effort will be made to do so.
