Wednesday, October 11th. All students presenting posters will receive a summary of the judges' comments. These will be distributed at the Awards Dinner. This feedback is intended to assist students in presenting their work at national and international meetings. In planning a poster presentation it is useful to keep in mind the advantages of a poster over oral presentation.
Posters are available for viewing for an extended time at meetings.
Authors and interested viewers have more time for discussion. More posters can be presented in the same time and space than oral presentations reducing the number of simultaneous sessions. There is no first or last presentation on the program. For these and other reasons, many societies are switching to poster presentations. Planning and experience will make your poster presentation clear, effective and rewarding.
