This is the fifth award that the IFAR Journal has won in this prestigious annual publications contest and the third time it has won First Prize. Kudos and thanks to our design and production team: Designer: Ana Lucia Rosales-Boujnah; Editor-in-Chief: Dr. Sharon Flescher; and Editor: Kathleen Ferguson.
