Faculty and trainees are invited to submit abstracts for presentation in the poster session. The abstracts do not need to be related to the research day theme. We ask that the poster presenters have their posters mounted on Tuesday, February 21, by 12 noon to ensure that the judges have ample time to review the work. We also ask that the presenters be at their posters during both the noon hour and the afternoon break on Thursday.
