![]() Awards for
best posters presented by student-members of CSI
Best Poster Awards will be based on posters presented at
the conference. Please indicate on the abstract form if you wish to be
considered for these awards. Registration and abstract must be
submitted on-line.
Everyone is invited
to submit an abstract for poster at the CSI meeting, June 15 - 18,
2012 in St. John's, NL. However, only graduate students are eligible
for the poster awards. In order to prepare a winning poster you might
use the following guidelines:
- Ensure that you are a member of CSI and have paid your dues
for at least 2012.
- Ensure that your supervisor is also a current member of CSI
and remind him/her that to get either a poster award, or a traveling
award, he/she must also be a paid member of
CSI.
- Prepare a poster as if you were going to an international
meeting. Indicate your name and that of your supervisor and of everyone
else who contributed significantly to the work presented (supporting
you morally by making jokes or drinking together over the miseries of
experimental science does not qualify your best buddies as co-authors).
The work presented should be mostly yours. Also tell us which
department, hospital, institution and city you come
from.
- Present the data in a clear and professional fashion, so
that the reader should be able to understand easily your rationale,
data and conclusions. Check your spelling so that the English or French
is clear and concise.
A
panel of about 7 judges will review the posters and will try to
identify the most novel, challenging, original and well executed
ones.
