Competition finalists shown on the cover are identified below. The identities and affiliations of the submitters were not known to the judges. The larger number of Open category finalists reflects the larger number of entries in that category. Prize winners will be named at the annual M&M meeting in August. Finalist micrographs may be viewed at the 2022 gallery, and the microscopy community is invited to vote there for the People's Choice Award (website at the bottom of this page).
