Posters Make Debut at Fall Research Network Conference

Vol XVII, Aug `05

For the first time, research posters will be a part of the 2005 Research Network meeting in Chicago in November. The AMDA Foundation will select 4-6 posters to display during the course of the meeting. Attendees will have an opportunity to either discuss their ideas and suggestions with the presenter or submit comments anonymously--with the goal of strengthening the poster's impact and sharpening the individual's poster development skills. "This fits in with the Foundation's mission and its goal of providing researchers with an opportunity for peer review of a poster they are preparing for a national audience," said Foundation Executive Director Gwendolyn Maddox.

An electronic call for posters went out to Research Network members in early August. Submissions are due by October 3. For more information, see the Foundation Web site at www.amdafoundation.org or call (410) 992-3134.
