Drug Discovery & Development Magazine Wins 2004 Gold "Eddie Award" For Editorial Excellence In The Science Business-To-Business Magazine Category
ROCKAWAY, N.J., Nov. 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Drug Discovery & Development magazine, the leading technology and applications magazine of the drug discovery/biotech research field, received the Gold "Eddie Award" for best business-to-business publication in the science category. The Eddies were presented on November 15, 2004 during the Folio: Celebration of Excellence gala awards dinner at the New York Hilton. Folio: magazine, host of the event, is the publication of record for the magazine industry.
Folio's Eddie Awards are open to all magazines -- consumer, b-to-b, associations and online. This is a unique competition in which magazines are evaluated against their own mission statement, rather than against the competition. Entrants are judged on how well they fulfill their mission statements, the quality of their content and how the overall design and production supports their mission. The judges are a "Who's Who" of the industry's leading editors, publishers, and consultants. Their combined expertise runs the gamut from the largest consumer to the smallest trade publications, both specialty and general interest. Each is extremely knowledgeable about the magazine industry in general, but removed from the particular industry category he or she will be judging.
In accepting the award, Tanuja Koppal, PhD, editor in chief of Drug Discovery & Development, said "We're proud to receive this award in recognition of our efforts to provide the most compelling, relevant information to our readers. Drug Discovery & Development has always provided information critical to advancing life science research in the pharmaceutical sector. Having our work not only appreciated by our readers, but also by our peers, is gratifying."
"The Eddie Award reaffirms our commitment to serving the information needs of drug discovery community," said Joan Boyce, publisher of Drug Discovery & Development. "We are honored to be recognized for the efforts of our editorial team to consistently deliver quality content that both informs and engages our readers."
