The 20 winning images from the 2016 Nikon Photomicrography Competition will be on view from January 23-March 3 at the Wistar Institute, Monday-Friday 9 a.m.-5 p.m. It is the only venue in the region to host the annual Nikon exhibition. The stunning images of the microscopic world are taken through the microscope by scientists, professional photographers and highly-skilled laypeople. The Nikon International Small World Competition first began in 1975 as a means to recognize and applaud the efforts of those involved with photography through the light microscope.

The Wistar Institute Leadership Council and Ambassadors will host the Small World opening reception at Wistar, on Friday, January 20 from 6–7:30 p.m. Registration required: http://wistar.convio.net/site/Calendar?id=100601&view=Detail
