F1000 award season is upon us again! Each year, we celebrate the work of our Associate Faculty Members (AFMs) by picking the winners of our AFM Travel Grant Awards.

These awards are our way of acknowledging the significant and valuable contribution AFMs make evaluating the literature for F1000Prime. Any AFM who has published six or more article recommendations in 2015 was eligible to be considered for a US$250 travel grant, which can be used towards attending a scientific meeting/conference of their choice. The winners were picked by the F1000Prime Editorial team from the list of eligible candidates.

We would like to thank all AFMs for their hard work and valued contributions in 2015, and would like to congratulate the following recipients of this year’s Travel Grants.
