BioMed Central's Annual Research Awards recognize excellence in scientific research made freely available through open access publishing within our portfolio of biology and medical journals.

Now in their 7th year, they are intended to recognize the achievements of particular research teams in ten diverse subject-specific award categories spanning all areas of Biology, Medicine and Health Services Research. There is also an Open Data award recognizing leadership in the sharing of data and a Case Report of the Year Award for the best case report recognized for its originality and significance to clinical practice.

We are pleased to announce the winners for the ten individual Research Award categories. These winning articles, selected by internationally respected judges, have been chosen for their innovation and high-quality execution and discussion.

Frank Cox, a judge on the panel for the Microbiology, Immunology, Infection and Inflammation award said, "This has been a very enjoyable experience. The quality of research both within the Microbiology category and the final list of winners from across all categories is outstanding. All the papers I read were clear, well written and made important advances to particular fields and the biomedical sciences in general. It is good to see that the awards attract the highest possible standard of papers."

These winners have been shortlisted for the overall BioMed Central Research Award, sponsored this year by antibodies-online. The overall winner will be announced at a ceremony on the evening of Sunday, 21st April, in Boston, USA, as part of an evening celebrating open access publishing which includes a panel discussion on the hotly debated topic on how to avoid the 'tyranny' of current peer review practices.

Last year's BioMed Central Research Award winner, ine McKnight said, "At the time, receiving the prize was a fantastic morale boost for my group. I've been an advocate of open access publishing from the early days. I've come to appreciate, even more, that if the work is significant publishing in an open access journal is the best way to ensure widespread and general exposure."
