All symposium attendees are invited to present a poster.  We hope that the poster session will provide a forum for graduate students and postdocs, from a variety of departments, to showcase their research and learn about other interdisciplinary science.

NEW!  In addition, as an incentive to students for presenting their work and to highlight the student-focus of the symposium, two student poster presenters will be chosen to orally present their work as part of the symposium program.  These two student talks will be 15 minutes long with 5 additional minutes reserved for questions.  The student presenters will be selected by the Symposium Organizing Committee based on the quality and content of their poster session abstract, and notified two weeks prior to the symposium, Tuesday, May 11th.

Poster Set-Up:  8:00 - 8:30 am

Poster Session:  11:20 am - 12:20 pm

Best Poster Award:  2:55 pm
