2009 Science Idol Contestants

In Science Idol: The Scientific Integrity Editorial Cartoon Contest, UCS asked 12 artists to draw humorous attention to the not-so-funny issue of political interference in federal government science. This summer, we gave you the chance to pick the winner. 

After more than 10,000 votes were cast, Jesse Springer of Eugene, OR came out on top with a cartoon about science and the Endangered Species Act (Cartoon #3). You can view the 12 cartoons below, which will be published in our 2010 Scientific Integrity Calendar.
