The Marco Ramoni Distinguished Paper Award for Translational Bioinformatics is presented annually at the AMIA Informatics Summit to a first author of the paper at the meeting that best exemplifies the spirit and scholarship of Marco Ramoni in applying informatics methods to the elucidation of basic molecular biology processes that are relevant to the conquest of human disease. Selection of the award will be determined by the TBI Scientific Program Committee. Article will also be recommended for journal publication.
