2024 AJB Synthesis papers and the AJB Synthesis Prize
Application Deadline: February 16, 2024
The American Journal of Botany welcomes applications for our 2024 AJB Synthesis papers and the AJB Synthesis Prize to showcase early-career scientists.
The AJB Synthesis section features invited contributions by early-career scientists that concisely summarize and synthesize a focal research area or question. These articles summarize recent research and provide new insights that advance the field. Contributions focus on newly emerging areas or provide new perspectives on established areas. Authors are encouraged to express a personal perspective, while maintaining a balanced view of the field. Syntheses should be single authored, no longer than 3,000 words, written so they are accessible to the broad readership of the journal, and have informative and creative visuals. All Synthesis papers accepted for publication and published in fall 2024 through spring 2025 will be considered for the AJB Synthesis Prize.
Consideration for the AJB Synthesis Prize: All Synthesis papers that are accepted for publication will be evaluated by a panel of judges, and one paper will be selected for the AJB Synthesis prize. The author whose paper is selected will be awarded a $2,000 cash prize.
Applications are due 16 February 2024.
