I’m pleased to announce that the Applied Networking Research Prize <http://irtf.org/anrp/> (ANRP) winners for 2022 are Sangeetha Abdu Jyothi, Gautam Akiwate, Corinne Cath, Sam Kumar, Bruce Spang, Tushar Swamy, and Daniel Wagner. 

The ANRP is awarded to recognise the best recent results in applied networking, interesting new research ideas of potential relevance to the Internet standards community, and upcoming people that are likely to have an impact on Internet standards and technologies, with a particular focus on cases where these people or ideas would not otherwise get much exposure or be able to participate in the discussion.
