IJDVL International Awards 2021
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.
We are delighted to announce the winners of the international awards for articles published in 2021 chosen by the editorial team. Like that for the Indian awards, this year the international award categories have been expanded: Instead of three best letter awards, we have introduced one best letter award each for case letters, observation letters, therapy letters, study letters and net letters.
