Win a place in the 2012 Nexxus Life-Sci Visions Calendar!
The Nexxus Life-Sci Visions Calendar showcases Scotland's life science expertise and capabilities and submissions are sought from Scottish based life science related organisations, institutions and networks for consideration for inclusion.
The final selections for the calendar will be judged by attendees at the East and West Nexxus Awards events in November 2011 and submissions will also be showcased on the Nexxus website.
Each month a different winning organisation, institution or network's image will appear in the Calendar accompanied by a brief description and website address for further information. This is an ideal opportunity to promote your organisation. Closing date for submissions is 14 October 2011.

Making a Submission
Submissions should be sent electronically to Jan Clark, Marketing Communications Manager, Nexxus at j.clark@nexxusscotland.com
If no acknowledgement of receipt is received within a few days of sending, this may be because the image(s) sent are too large and you should therefore resize and resubmit/send multiple images separately. Should this not remedy the situation, please send an email without attachments to Jan for advice.
Closing Date
Closing date for submissions is 14 October 2011.
