CALL FOR ABSTRACTS FOR POSTER SESSION AND YOUNG INVESTIGATOR AND CLINICAL YOUNG INVESTIGATOR AWARDS
We invite investigators to submit abstracts for the virtual lightening e-poster session, which is an important component of this conference.
Abstracts from graduate and medical students, residents and postdoctoral fellows will be considered for Young Investigator Awards and Clinical Young Investigator Award. Four winners, three from Young Investigator category and one from Clinical Young Investigator category will be announced and each will be presented with a prize and a plaque. To qualify, you must register and submit an abstract to Dr. Zeynep Seref-Ferlengez, the chair of the Poster Session and Young Investigator Award committee, by September 28, 2022 via email to: msk.einstein.symposium@gmail.com.
The abstract is limited to 1 page. Include in your abstract the study's objective, a brief statement of methods, a summary of the results obtained, conclusions, and significance. Please follow the
abstract template. Due to concurrent poster sessions, each presenter can present only one poster. If you have multiple posters, please assign one of your co-authors for presentation
As the Symposium aims to promote communication within our region, we encourage you to submit your recent work (within 2021) to this Symposium, including work that may have been submitted to other meetings.
