Activation of the ERK/MAPK pathway: a signature genetic defect in posterior fossa pilocytic astrocytomas. Journal of Pathology 2009; 218: 172–181 It is with great pleasure that the Editorial Team of the Journal of Pathology announce that Forshew and Tatevossian et al. 1 have been awarded the 2009 Jeremy Jass Prize for Research Excellence in Pathology. This annual award was first presented last year in memory of the late Jeremy Jass. As with the first award 2, a list was prepared based on citations and downloads as well as recommendations from the Editorial Team. The Team then ranked the short-listed papers (although one of the papers had an Associate Editor as a co-author so they recused themselves from the entire process). Based on these rankings the Editor-in-Chief identified the highest ranked paper. The paper describes the results of an international collaboration between researchers in Queen Mary University of London, St Jude Children's Research Hospital, Memphis, Tennessee and the Royal Victoria Infirmary, University of Newcastle. The groups are shown in Figure 1. The two joint first authors will each receive a medal, and all authors a certificate, commemorating their achievement. A short Commentary describing the work and its broader context follows this Announcement. Figure 1Open in figure viewerPowerPoint Upper main panel: the team at Queen Mary University of London.
