Travel Award
Dear Colleagues,
As Editor-in-Chief of Nutrients, I am pleased to announce the winner of the Nutrients Travel Award in Nutritional Immunology for 2021.
The award has been granted to Dr. Leila Abdelhamid, from Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine (Dr. Xin Luo's group), Virginia Tech, USA. Her research explores the complex cellular and molecular pathways of how vitamin A modulates the inflammation-associated with systemic autoimmunity.
With so many high-quality applicants, the evaluation process and final decision were challenging. We would like to thank all the applicants for submitting their diverse and fascinating range of research topics. On behalf of the assessment committee, I congratulate the winner on her accomplishments.
