Travel Award
Dear Colleagues,
As Editor-in-Chief of Toxins, I am pleased to announce the winner of the 2020 Toxins Travel Award:
This award has been granted to Prof. Steve Peigneur, a Postdoctoral Researcher in the lab of Toxicology & Pharmacology at the Catholic University of Leuven (KU Leuven) in Belgium. His research in the field of drug discovery and development mainly focusses on the characterisation of novel ligands for ion channels and receptors, starting from natural sources such as venomous animals and poisonous plants. He plans to present his work in International Society of Toxinology Asia-Pacific Conference 2020, Cairns, Australia.
The award comprises 1000 Swiss Francs and a certificate for the winner.
Toxins is proud to support young researchers working in the field of toxinology, and we wish Dr. Peigneur further success in his career. We are grateful to all who submitted applications—thank you for letting us get to know you and your work.
Editor-in-Chief
Prof. Jay Fox
