Another fantastic reason to submit to ICB and CTI

Today we announce a brand new initiative, the ICB and CTI Altmetric Awards. There are two awards, each valued at AUD 500.

These will be awarded once a year for a paper published in either Immunology & Cell Biology or Clinical & Translational Immunology.

The Altmetric Award rewards the publication with the highest Altmetric Attention Score.

What are Altmetrics?

Good question. Altmetrics complement traditional, citation-based metrics by measuring how widely discussed a journal article is around the globe.

It recognises other indicators of your paper’s success; the attention, influence, and impact.

So to all current and future authors of papers in ICB and CTI: For your best chance to win; tweet, write press releases, engage the media and tell your friends and colleagues to share.. Sharing is caring!
