EJN Best Publication Award 2009

In collaboration with FENS and Wiley Blackwell, EJN is launching a “Best Publication Award” in 2009, awarding the best research article published in EJN over a two year period (published or accepted in years 2007 and 2008 for the 2009 award). This biennial award will be bestowed to the first author(s) of the selected article (a personal award of 3,000 £).

Nominations are accepted from the readership of EJN, including from any author on behalf of the first author of an original article published or accepted in 2007 or 2008. The award will be presented at the FENS Featured Regional Meeting in Warsaw (September 9-12, 2009). The award winner will be required to give a Special Lecture at the meeting. The application consists of the following documents, bundled together into a single PDF file:

• One page summary addressing the significance of the work
• PDF of the article
• Short biosketch (2 pages) of the first author (or first authors in case of equal first co-authorship)
• A signed statement by all authors of the article confirming their support for the nomination and that they agree with the selection of the nominee and, in case of multiple first authors, the selection of the speaker for the Warsaw meeting.

Applications will be evaluated by a Committee consisting of five Associate Editors and the Editors-in-Chief of EJN. Applications should be submitted in form of a single PDF attachment to the EJN Editorial Office:editorial.office@ejn.uk.com

The deadline for nominations is February 28, 2009
