To celebrate the Journal’s 30th year of publication, we are proud to announce a best paper prize, recognising the most outstanding research published in the Journal.
The prize will be £1000 and will be awarded every two years at the Society of Mathematical Biology annual conference.
On this occasion, any paper submitted to Mathematical Medicine & Biology between June 2013 and December 2014, and subsequently accepted for publication in the Journal, will automatically be considered for the 2015 prize. The entries will be judged by a committee drawn from the Editorial Board and will be announced at the SMB annual conference in 2015. The prize will be awarded to the authors of the paper deemed by the committee to show the greatest originality and significance, particularly in combining mathematical depth with biological or biomedical impact. This is an open competition and no restrictions on authorship will be imposed, except that Co-Editors are ineligible and no Associate Editor who is an author of a candidate paper can serve on the judging committee.
