Abstract
In recognition of the high standard of papers submitted to the Scandinavian Journal of Primary Health Care, the editorial board in collaboration with the Nordic Congress of General Practice proudly announce the Paper of the Year award. The winner of each year will be granted participation free of charge to the Nordic Congress of General Practice in Tampere 2013, and will be given a specific time slot in relation to the plenary sessions in order to present the Paper and the research it constitutes. The candidates will be found among all first authors of papers published in the Scandinavian Journal of Primary Health Care in 2011, and among those published in 2012. It is possible to nominate first author candidates who have published the Paper of the Year in the Scandinavian Journal Primary Health Care in 2011 and in 2012, respectively. The nominations should be sent to the national colleges. A specific focus is put on the nominations from each of the Nordic societies who should nominate the first authors who they believe should be honoured with the Paper of the Year award, and do a presentation to a full audience at the Nordic Congress in Tampere 2013. Each of the Nordic colleges will nominate four candidates. The final decision of who is going to be assigned first author of the Paper of the Year award in 2011 and 2012, respectively, is judged by the full editorial board of the Scandinavian Journal of Primary Health Care. The decision is based on explicit criteria: Impact, Application, Usability, Dissemination, Originality, Methods, and Presentation. The final decision will be made in May 2013 and the two winners will be contacted immediately by the Nordic Federation of General Practice. Deadline for sending nominations to national colleges is 1st February 2013. Deadline for the national colleges to send in nominations to the editorial board is 1st April 2013. For further advice and information about the award please contact The Editorial Office at www.sjphc.org The two winners will also be invited to participate at the traditional Scandinavian Journal of Primary Health Care Symposium at the Nordic Congress.
