IJDVL International Awards 2017

Correspondence Address:

In recognition of the large number of manuscripts we receive from overseas contributors, IJDVL bestows a set of awards for our international authors. These are distinct from the awards that the Journal confers on the best contributions from Indian authors and which were announced in the previous issue. This year, we are pleased to announce that we have reintroduced the category of the best Case Report published by an international author.

We are delighted to announce the winners of the international awards for articles published in 2017 chosen by the editorial team.
