Scientific researchers in Canada see amazing things through the microscope lens and out in the field. Science Exposed is an annual research image contest revealing the beauty and wonder of their scientific observations while telling you more about their work. The perfect mix of science and art to surprise you and ignite your curiosity!

This year's Science Exposed public voting is now open! View the top 20 research images and descriptions to vote for the 2021 People's Choice Award. One vote per person and email address.

This contest is presented by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC)

Quick — what can change its shape to fit any container, squeeze into the narrowest places, and even defy gravity? If you said a liquid, you are right! In this session, we’re going to explore the amazing properties of fluids. We will stack colourful liquids in a jar to make a rainbow. Then, mix a gooey batch of oobleck to learn more about non-Newtonian fluids and why viscosity matters to research and development chemists when designing a new lotion or shampoo.
