Award season is upon us, and so at this time of the year we here at F1000Prime also like to recognize the outstanding contribution of our Faculty, who highlight the most notable articles in their fields!

Every year, we award ‘Faculty Member of the Year’ to one Faculty Member from each Faculty who has worked especially hard writing F1000Prime article Recommendations that have proved popular with our users in the previous year.

For those who have made an extraordinary contribution to our service, we award ‘Outstanding Faculty Member of the Year’. Five Faculty Members have been awarded this accolade for contributions made in 2017. Finally, we also award ‘Travel Grants’ to eligible Associate Faculty Members who have co-authored particularly noteworthy recommendations. We have awarded 31 Travel Grants this year.
