There will be three monetary prizes ($350 each) given each day for graduate students and medical students and postdoctoral fellows, residents and staff. Faculty posters will not be judged.

Judging Criteria

The abstract will be judged in conjunction with the poster. The individual presenting the poster must be present during the entire session. There is a 250-word limit, excluding the title and the authors.

Board Specifications

Poster boards have a display area of approximately 4' x 6'. Presenters are reminded that they are discouraged from tacking posters to the wooden framing surrounding the display area in order to preserve the condition of the boards for future use.
