ICHS Poster Awards

All attendees of the ICHS Biennial Symposiums are eligible to submit abstracts representing their research or clinical experiences.  These abstracts are reviewed by the ICHS Abstract Review Committee, comprised of two or more ICHS International Council members.  Selected abstract presenters are invited to present their work in poster, or occasionally, oral format at the meeting.  These posters are judged by teams of two or three ICHS Council members.  Ten authors were chosen to participate in the Poster Walk and give a 5-7 minute oral summary of their research and three additional authors were chosen to present 15 minute oral presentations during the first Sunday morning Symposium.
