Remarkable image showing tiny premature baby being kept alive by UV light wins medical photography award


David Bishop's photo of a baby being kept alive by a UV lamp at at Barnet Hospital in north London was one of two winners of the 2014 Wellcome Image Awards, which celebrate medical photography. 

The other winner was a watercolour and ink painting of the Ebola virus by David Goodsell, which showed in minute detail the internal structure of this tiny, notoriously lethal virus. 

Awards judge Fergus Walsh, BBC Medical Correspondent, who presented the awards, said: 

'The Wellcome Image Awards consistently uncover a stunning range of images that not only capture the imagination but help bring complex concepts to life.

From otherworldly pictures to intricate close ups, these spectacular images draw you in and tell important stories about medical research today.'
