This image of a peppercorn and a grain of salt taken by David McCarthy is the overall winner (and close-up category winner) in this year's Visions of Science Photographic Awards. The competition is sponsored by Novartis and The Daily Telegraph.

For, 75 years, this child mummy resided in the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum in San Jose, California, its body unseen by human eyes, its story a mystery. In 2005, a team of researchers and computer engineer Paul Brown of Stanford University began to unravel the threads of this mystery using the latest in imaging technology. Using a high-resolution scanner to generate 60,000 2D scans of the unwrapped mummy and applying addition 3D computer graphics created a 3d model of the mummy and its interior. Analysis of the data revealed that the 2,000-yer-old mummy is the remains of a 4-to-5 year old girl who, researchers concluded, likely died unexpectedly from an infectious disease.
