In partnership with PopSci.com, the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Vizzies Challenge, now in its 16th year, invites researchers and members of the general public to submit their best science or engineering visualization.

NSF and PopSci.com will feature the winning entries on their respective websites. In addition, up to 5 Experts' Choice winning entries will receive $2,000 each, and up to 3 People's Choice winning entries will receive $500 each. You can learn more about the competition and view previous year's winners at the NSF Vizzies Challenge website.
