FEBS Letters' 2026 Cover Contest

Researchers and students in the molecular life sciences are invited to submit visually striking images derived directly from their scientific data.

The competition emphasizes authentic research visuals (microscopy images, structural data, or molecular simulations) rather than artistic illustrations. The winning image will be featured on the journal cover, with a €500 prize awarded, and selected entries will be highlighted in a dedicated article.

Submissions are open from 18 March to 30 September 2026.
