Description
The Society of Toxicology’s Nanoscience and Advanced Materials Specialty Section (NAMSS) Best Publication Award recognizes a paper judged to make significant contributions to nanoscience and advanced materials. The award honors the first author or corresponding author with an engraved plaque, recognizing the contribution of an accepted or in-press paper rather than supporting a proposed research project.
Selection considers both scientific substance and presentation. The criteria emphasize a clearly stated hypothesis, thorough characterization of relevant nanomaterial physicochemical properties, and the quality of data interpretation. The paper’s potential impact and style are also considered, placing the study’s contribution to the field alongside the quality and clarity of its scientific work.
