The IACS-NAS has a strong commitment to promoting the academic careers of junior researchers. Accordingly, several Awards will be offered to students, trainees, and young investigators during the conference.
Graduate students, medical students, and clinical residents are invited to submit abstracts. A Review Committee appointed by the Program Director will review all abstracts and select the top 4 abstracts for oral presentations. Other abstracts that are not selected for the presentation will be assigned for regular poster presentation. The selected poster presenters will be paid complimentary registration and 3 nights of hotel accommodation and local hospitality. The appointed judges of this session will listen to each talk and select one presentation for the award.
