Prizes
The European Academy of Andrology awards prizes onan annual basis. The aim of these awards is to stimulate and encourage excellent research in andrology. All original articles published in the International Journal of Andrology are eligible for the awards. The winners of the awards are decided by the Editorial Board of the Journal and the Executive Council of the European Academy of Andrology.
Since 1995, the prizes have been awarded as the European Academy of Andrology Prize, sponsored by Hamilton Thorne Research Ltd. The first prize is U$/€ 2000 including a commemorative plaque and the second prize is U$/€ 600European Academy of Andrology Prize awards
