April call for Davis-Thompson Foundation Photo Contest

The Davis-Thomson Foundation invites you to submit digital gross, microscopic, or ultrastructural images depicting a lesion, to be featured on the front page of the monthly newsletter. Each month a new image will take pride of place in the issue. Winning images will be added to Noah’s Arkive to be preserved forever! Worried about image copyrights? Have no fear, the foundation does not claim copyright for any material published by us. Submission information: * Submission deadline: The 15th of each month to be considered for the upcoming issue * Send your image by e-mail to: * Dr. Katherine Watson: images@davisthompsonfoundation.org<mailto:images@davisthompsonfoundation.org> Figure Requirements (see examples below): * Do not exceed maximum file size of 5 MB. * Width of the image should be 6.8 inches. * Acceptable formats are TIFF and JPEG. * Minimum acceptable resolution is 300 pixels/inch (120 pixels/cm) for half-tones (i.e., photographs, histology images). * We recommend saving your images as TIFF files with LZW compression. LZW compression will reduce file size (sometimes dramatically) without affecting quality. * When you are saving a file such as a TIFF from any package such as Photoshop, you are given the option of compressing the file. LZW compression will speed up the upload and download times and will not affect your image in a negative way. Figure Legend (attach as a word document separated from the image file): * Name/names of contributors and their affiliated institutions. * Brief (no longer than 2 sentence) description of the lesion including: * Signalment * Diagnosis * Any other pertinent information you want to share Cheers, Kate Watson, DVM PhD DACVP California Animal Health and Food Safety Laboratory Assistant Professor of Anatomic Pathology "Mortui vivos docent" <http://www.vetmed.ucdavis.edu/research/grad_education/vstp/index.cfm> Publication List<http://scholar.google.com/citations?user=cGQfYQoAAAAJ&hl=en> "I know quite certainly that I myself have no special talent. Curiosity, obsession and dogged endurance, combined with self-criticism, have brought me to my ideas." - Albert Einstein
