Centre for Personalised Medicine Art Competition

Every year, we plan to ask young people to create art that looks at the great things and the challenging things about personalised medicine.

In the first year of the competition (2022-23) we looked at the theme of ‘measurements in health and disease’ (follow this link to see a video introducing the competition). We were so delighted and impressed with the quality of the entries we received. This blog post talks through the winners and finalists.

In the second year of the competition (2023-24), we asked students to look at screening newborn babies for disease. The video introducing the competition can be found here. The finalists’ artwork can be found in this blog post. We hope you enjoy the thought-provoking entries as much as we did.

In the third year of the competition (2024-25) we explored how personalised medicine affects our planet. The video introducing the competition can be found here. As with the previous competitions, we were delighted by the quality and imagination of the entries. The finalists’ artwork can be found in this blog post.

We hope to run the competition again for 2025-26. Please check back in September for more details!
