Welcome to another of our Eberhard F. Mammen Award announcements. As noted previously,[1]
[2]
[3] Thieme, the publisher of Seminars in Thrombosis & Hemostasis, has 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:
Fig. 1 Eberhard F. Mammen (1930–2008).
Most Popular Article Awards: The award is presented to the authors of the most popular articles published in Seminars in Thrombosis & 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 $1,000 plus “open access” status for these articles, thereafter.
Young Investigator Awards: This award is given to a young investigator with the best presentation or meeting abstract, as presented or delivered to an international or large regional 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. There are up to six cash prizes of US $1,000 every year. Awardees are expected to prepare a review or any other article related to the topic of their presentation for publication in Seminars in Thrombosis & 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]

Mammen Awards, and namely those for the most popular articles from Seminars in Thrombosis & Hemostasis for the period of 2011–2012 as well as the Young Investigator awards related to meetings held in the recent past.
