Protein Science Best Paper Winners

At the beginning of each year, two best paper winners are selected from articles published in Protein Science during the preceding 12 months. A junior author (typically the first author) is designated as the award winner and invited to give a talk at the Annual Symposium.

Congratulations to our 2024 Best Paper Winners: Jessica Lusty-Beech, Montana State University; and Matteo Cagiada, University of Copehagen.
