Awards & competitions

The Human Proteome Organization presents HUPO awards annually at the World Congress. These awards recognize the outstanding efforts and achievements of individuals (or groups) in the field of proteomics. HUPO gratefully acknowledges the support of Clinical Proteomics - BioMed Central, Journal of Proteomics - ELSEVIER BV, Journal of Proteome Research - ACS Publications, and the Industrial Advisory Board (IAB) as sponsors of four of the annual awards. 

The 2019 HUPO Award recipients have been announced; see the 2019 HUPO Award recipients here. 

Early Career Researcher Manuscript Competition

The ECR Manuscript Competition is the perfect occasion to make early-career researchers more visible to the proteomics community and serves as a platform to highlight the important contributions that post-doctoral fellows, young clinicians, and junior faculty members make to the proteomics field. HUPO encourages all ambitious early-career proteomics researchers to participate in this competition with an already published publication during calendar years 2018-2019. Three finalists will present their publications in a related parallel sessions at HUPO 2019 in Adelaide, where an expert committee will evaluate their oral presentations.

The 2019 ECR Manuscript Competition is closed; see who the three finalists are here.
