Awards

To celebrate the work of the community around the journal, we have instituted three awards:

Reviewers’ Choice Awards: given annually to up to 10% of papers published in the journal, this award recognizes the papers that the reviewers deem as the best papers during their one-year tenure in the Standing Review Committee.
Editors’ Choice Award: given annually, this award recognizes one paper that the Editorial Board deems as the most emblematic paper for the spirit of the journal during the previous year.
Outstanding Reviewer Awards: given annually to up to 3 members of the Standing Review Committee by the Editorial Board of the journal, this award recognizes these members’ stellar reviewing service.
