Through this award, we aim to recognise and promote the outstanding work of junior scholars in the field of medical anthropology. The winning paper will be published in MAT. The winner will be expected to serve on the jury for awarding the next cycle of the prize. We welcome submissions from early career scholars from all parts of the world. Co-authored papers are acceptable, but all authors must meet the eligibility criteria below.
