CABTRAC is pleased to offer a scientific poster session with cash awards for the best graduate student and postdoc posters on Tuesday, October 29 in the Basie Ballroom A at the Kansas City Marriott Downtown Hotel.

All registered trainees are expected to present a poster.

Please submit your abstract below by the final day to accept: October 4.

Posters are to be hung after 1pm on Tuesday, October 29. Trainees will present their posters from 5pm to 7pm.

The event will be divided into two one-hour sessions to allow trainees the opportunity to view other posters. Find your pre-assigned spot by odd or even number to hang your poster. Odd numbers will present the first hour and even numbers the second hour.

Poster cash awards will be announced Wednesday, October 30 at 8:15am.

Tall (8’ wide x 4’ tall) double-sided poster display boards will be provided. There are no size restrictions (as long as your poster fits within the display area) or material requirements.

Posters do not need to be created specifically for this event, but should include the following evaluation criteria:

• Purpose of the study clearly stated
• Data presented in a visually effectively manner
• Poster presented in a logical manner
• Conclusions stated clearly and supported by results   
• Conclusions and future work tied back to the hypothesis
