Because the MPSD C website is our primary means of communicating with the biophysical community at large, we are currently planning significant improvements to our website in terms of content, organization, and overall aesthetics. As part of this broader redesign initiative, last year we announced a contest to design our official logo for use on the website and in official publications. The contest was open to all post docs, graduate students, lab technicians, and lab personnel associated with the Consortium, who were asked to submit a stylized design that informs and captures the spirit of the Consortium. These logos were reviewed by the Executive Committee of the MPSDC, who judged the logos based on creativity, originality, aesthetics, use of space, and color. The prize for the winning logo designer will be an Apple iPad with Wi-Fi and 32GB Memory.
We are pleased to announce that we have made our decision, which will be made public shortly. We would like to thank all of the Consortium affiliates who participated in the contest for their time and creativity. What follows after the jump are several of the submissions that we received.
