## Contribution

Two groundbreaking papers were recognized for their significant contributions to disease modeling and research resources.

## Key findings

- Lídia Faria's research highlights a key actin signaling pathway in pre-malignant mammary cells.
- Ffion R. Hammond and Amy Lewis developed a transgenic zebrafish line to study immune cell polarization.

## Abstract

Disease Models & Mechanisms (DMM) is delighted to announce that the winners of the DMM Outstanding Paper Prize 2023 are Lídia Faria for their Research Article (titled ‘Activation of an actin signaling pathway in pre-malignant mammary epithelial cells by P-cadherin is essential for transformation’), and Ffion R. Hammond and Amy Lewis for their Resource Article (titled ‘An arginase 2 promoter transgenic line illuminates immune cell polarisation in zebrafish’). The two prizes of £1000 are awarded to the first author(s) of the papers that are judged by the journal's Editors to be the most outstanding contribution to the journal that year.

Summary: DMM announces the winners of the DMM Outstanding Paper Prize for Research and Resource Articles published in 2023.
