Today we are proud to announce the winners of our \href{https://www.authorea.com/17530-authorea-sponsors-travel-grants}{travel grant} for European student attendees of the APS March meeting in San Antonio, TX.

\textbf{Why did Authorea sponsor these travel grants?} At Authorea, we want to build bridges between scholars, disciplines, and cultures in order to form a collaborative scholarly community at a global scale.  Sometimes, \textit{face-to-face meetings are the best catalysts for sharing and creating new connections}. Two of us at Authorea - Alberto and Matteo - are from Italy. They have benefited from academic careers abroad (postdocs at Harvard and University of California, Santa Barbara, respectively) also thanks to important connections they made at international conferences in the early stages of their academic career.

Our winners for the March Meeting are \textbf{Alberto De La Torre} and \textbf{Juan Trastoy Quintela}, both from Spain. We hope that the connections they made at the March Meeting will bring fruitful collaborations.
