In honour of World Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTD) Day, 30 January 2024, the Canadian Network for Neglected Tropical Diseases (CNNTD) is pleased to launch an Awards competition to recognize an outstanding Canadian partnership research contribution in the field of neglected tropical diseases. This contribution will focus on research published in the scientific peer-reviewed literature. One paper will be selected by a CNNTD Selection Committee from all submissions received by the deadline date. The award will be presented at a public venue in Canada in 2024.
Research paper: A full-length research manuscript which has been published in a peer-reviewed scientific journal, indexed in PubMed, in English, French or Spanish, in 2023.
