- in the 13-18 age group Mari-Ann Piht received first prize for her portrait of a microbiologist at work.
- in the adult age group Joonas Sildre (a noted caricaturist and cartoonist) won with a picture entitled “The Researcher and The Wise”.
The winners` drawings will be sent to the European Commission and compete at the European level.
The computer drawing competition was organised by EENet and AHHAA Science Centre.
