Why participate?
We started the Top Innovations competition in 2008, and over the years we honored some amazing products and technologies. Previously, our independent panel of expert judges chose winners that included advanced cell sorting and spatial technologies, omics advances, new medical imaging and monitoring equipment, better ways to model disease and detect biomarkers, and a CRISPR teaching tool.
Our Top Innovations winners do not just make a splash when they come on the scene. They gain industry-wide recognition and have long-lasting and profound effects on research and public health.
We are eager to see what groundbreaking advancements you bring to our attention this year. Just make sure that the product or technology you are entering was first commercially available after July 1, 2024 and complete a brief questionnaire. Please choose the best category for your nomination—entries will only be considered in one category.
