The Wellcome Trust is a major funder of biomedical research in the UK. But part of its remit is improving the public’s understanding of health and medical research.

The winners run from the microscopic to the every day. Many of the winning images aren’t clearly medical in nature (unless you plan to practice medicine on a squid).
