The competition: Dinah WashingtonThe renowned singer Dinah Washington made popular a song titled “What a difference a day makes”. Although the song was of a romantic nature we think that in scientific careers it’s also possible that a day really can make a difference. The question is – in your scientific studies, work or research have you had a day that made a real difference. A day when you had a “now I understand” moment, an experiment that went amazingly well, a failure which lead to an unexpected discovery, a conversation that sparked a brilliant idea. Tell us about this day and the difference it’s made in less than 500 words. The award: The participant who submits the most interesting, surprising or amusing entry will receive a A$1200 award. There are also three runners up awards of $600 each.
