Article of the Year Award
Each year, Lund Stem Cell Center presents its prestigious 'Article of the Year Award' to acknowledge and celebrate the novel discoveries made by its members.
Since 2017, Principal Investigators from across the Center have been invited every year to nominate publications written by researchers within their group. Following an external evaluation process the results are announced at the annual retreat, and the prize (50 000 SEK) is awarded to the research group of the winner.
The Lund Stem Cell Center Article of the Year Award (2024) ceremony will take place on Tuesday, 01 October 2024 during the Center's 2024 Annual Retreat.
