positive feedback from the reviewers.
Editor’s Choice articles are based on recommendations by the scientific editors of MDPI journals from around the world.
Editors select a small number of articles recently published in the journal that they believe will be particularly
interesting to readers, or important in the respective research area. The aim is to provide a snapshot of some of the
most exciting work published in the various research areas of the journal.
We are pleased to announce the three winners of the IJMS 2019 Travel Awards:
Dr. Fernando Souza-Fonseca-Guimaraes, a senior postdoctoral research fellow at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research, Australia. His research focuses on natural killer cells and signaling pathways that regulate their development and function in homeostasis and disease.
Dr. Erika Gyengesi, a lecturer at Western Sydney University, Australia, whose research focuses on the effects of chronic neuroinflammation in the rodent brain, in particular, on the basal forebrain cholinergic system and its connected areas.
Dr. Joanne Tsui Ming Tan, a senior postdoctoral researcher at the South Australian Health and Medical Research Institute, Australia. Her research focuses on identifying novel therapeutic targets to relieve the debilitating effects of diabetic vascular complications.
Each Travel Award consists of a certificate and 800 CHF to attend an academic conference of their choice in 2019. Congratulations to the winners of this highly competitive travel award.
We would like to thank all the Scientific Committee members for their assiduous evaluation of the candidates, and all the applicants for submitting their diverse and fascinating range of research topics.
The 2020 IJMS Travel Awards will be open for applications at the end of 2019. Please check https://www.mdpi.com/journal/ijms/awards for more information closer to that time.
