NOTIFICATION: Faculty and students who are willing to present research posters must email the submission form (attached) to Qin Zhu (qzhu1@uwyo.edu) by April 8st, 2016 (5 pm). Instruction for Poster Presentations 1. Posters being generated specifically for Grand Rounds can be up to a maximum of 4 ft. x 4 ft. in dimension. Only posters that have been submitted previously (or are to be simultaneously submitted to scientific meetings requiring a larger format up to 4 ft. x 8 ft.) can be of a dimension greater than 4 ft. x 4 ft. This restriction on poster size is mandated by the number and size of our display boards. 2. Display boards will be provided (eight 4 x 4 and six 8 x 4 foot double-sided boards, thus, a maximum of 40 posters if all are 4 x 4 ft. in dimension, but only 20 posters if all are 4 x 8 ft. in dimension). 3. Poster acceptance will be on a first-come first-serve basis due to space limitations. Posters selected for presentation will be notified by April 13 by 5pm. 4. You will need double-sided tape to attach your poster to the boards as pins or thumb-tacks are not allowed. Your poster should fit on a 4 foot x 4 foot board (see points 2 and 3 above). 5.
