RULES:

– Entrant must be a current Graduate Student (PhD or Masters) and present a poster during HUPO 2022. 15 posters in each trainee category (graduate students and postdocs) will be pre-selected based on the quality, novelty and potential impact of submitted abstracts.
– Posters will be visited by evaluators during the poster sessions at HUPO 2022 to select a winner and runner up for each level (graduate student and postdocs).
– Award winners will be highlighted during the HUPO 2026 Closing Ceremony & Awards Session.

Scientific posters may be submitted by a company through the regular on-line mechanism. However, if the poster is only reporting about the capabilities of a product (e.g., instrument, ancillary device, kit, reagent, software) and does not have a main scientific focus, it can only be considered in the Corporate Poster category, for which there is a fee and a designated presentation location in the poster hall.
