Cells has instituted a “Best Paper” award to recognize the most outstanding papers in the area of cell biology, molecular biology, and biophysics, published in Cells. We are pleased to announce the first “Cells Best Paper Award” for 2015. The winners were chosen by the Editor-in-Chief and selected Editorial Board Members from all the research papers published in 2013 and 2014. We are pleased to announce that the following three papers have won the Cells Best Paper Award in 2015:
-
First Prize
