As we have mentioned on several occasions,[1] [2] [3] Thieme, the publisher of Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, recently created the Eberhard F. Mammen Excellence in Thrombosis and Hemostasis Awards in honor of Eberhard F. Mammen (Fig. [1]), and in recognition of his contribution to this field and to the journal that he both founded and steered for over three decades. These awards began in 2009, under two categories:

Most popular article awards: Awarded to the authors of the most popular articles published in Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis. The awards are determined by the editor in chief on the basis of user statistics from Thieme eJournals from the preceding 2 years. The awards comprise two major cash prizes of US $1000 plus “open access” status for these articles thereafter. Young investigator awards: Best presentation or meeting abstract by a young investigator, as presented or delivered to an international meeting on a topic related to the fields of thrombosis and hemostasis, and whose subject matter is determined to be in the spirit of Dr. Mammen. Up to six cash prizes of US $1000 in any year. Awardees are expected to prepare a review or other article related to the topic of their presentation for publication in Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis.

Further details of the awards and the award winners are posted online (http://www.thieme.com/sth), and previous award winner announcements are also available in print.[4] [5] [6]

It is therefore with great pleasure that we would like to announce the latest winners of the Eberhard F. Mammen award for the most popular articles from Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis for the period 2009 to 2010 inclusive, as well as the young investigator awards related to meetings held in 2010.
