Prêmios aos artigos mais influentes

A comunidade VL/HCC iniciou esta tradição em 2008. A cada ano, um grupo de votantes — o Comitê Diretor atual, o Comitê de Programa atual e os responsáveis pelo programa das conferências VL/HCC dos anos considerados — analisa os artigos dos VL/HCC realizados uma década antes (e, até 2017, duas décadas antes), para selecionar os que mais influenciaram a pesquisa ou a atividade comercial relacionada ao VL/HCC.

Todos os membros da comunidade são convidados a indicar artigos desses anos. Após a elaboração de uma lista de finalistas, os votantes sem conflitos de interesse com os indicados analisam os artigos e votam no mais influente de cada década.
