Update to PLOS WorldLeish-6 Collection

Last May we opened a call for papers for a PLOS Collection on Leishmaniasis to accompany the 6th World Leish Congress (WL6) which will be taking place in Toledo, Spain in 2017. The latest update to the collection includes papers from PLOS ONE, PLOS Neglected Tropical Diseases and PLOS Pathogens. Highlights from the update include:

Regular updates to the WorldLeish-6 Collection will continue until the conference in Toledo, Spain in May. At WL6, DNDi will award prizes to 20 papers accepted to the collection. These will be selected by the WL6 Scientific Committee; this initiative is intended to help fund the publication of future research in this field.
