ACT 2008 Scientific Poster Presentation Contest!

All accepted poster presentations will automatically be entered into the ACT 2008 Poster Presentation Contest and will be reviewed by the ACT Executive Poster Committee. The Executive Poster Committee Judges will narrow the Scientific Posters down to their Top 10 Picks. These 10 posters will then be announced in the exhibit hall during the evening cocktail receptions. In addition, attendees will vote for their favorite poster presentation onsite.

The winner will qualify to give a core curriculum presentation at ACT 2009.
