Non-profit scientific publisher BioOne has announced the winners of the 2020 Ambassador Award. The award honours early career authors in three countries, who best communicate their specialised research beyond their immediate discipline and to the public at large.
Effective communication is fundamental to ensuring the use of scientific information to make informed, evidence-based decisions. BioOne has recognised these individuals for their clarity and creativity. Winners from each publication will receive a $1,000 award and wide dissemination of their research.
BioOne invited qualified nominees to submit a 250-word, plain-language summary explaining how the results of their work apply across disciplines and to the public at large.
