Editors' awardees for 2022.

Abstract

Each year, the Editors of the Journal examine papers that were nominated for The Editors’ Awards. These prestigious awards come with a cash prize (approximately $750) plus an award certificate and official recognition in the Journal for their scientific contribution. We had 50 nominations this year, which speaks to the continuing interest in publishing in the Journal. This year, we selected Editors to review the manuscripts for the Editors’ Awards, based on the broad subjects of the papers. We asked Editors to consider novelty and impact as the main criteria to base their prioritization on. Scores from participating Editors were averaged to obtain the final ranking. Thanks to the following Editors, who gave of their time to provide us with assessments of the papers: Drs. Inman, LeBlang, Filippiadis, Ziemlewicz, Wust, Oghuri, Haemmerich, Stauffer, Diederich, Prakash, Kuroda, Repasky, and Dewhirst. Eligibility: Any first or senior author who is less than 35 years of age at the time of the manuscript submission is eligible to nominate themselves for this award. This is done during the on-line manuscript submission process.
