Science Magazine published the information, which was recognized as the best news item written in brief format in the science area .
A condensed article published in Science Magazine about a study from the University of Navarra's department of Physics and Applied Mathematics has won the 2015 DCSWA Newsbrief Award 2015, given by the association of DCSWA Science Writers, which went to its author, Physical Society editor Emily Conover.
