BEST POSTER PRESENTATIONS TO BE RECOGNIZED AT THE 2005 MRS FALL MEETING

Poster sessions are an important and integral part of MRS meetings, allowing many more authors the opportunity to share their research and ideas with others. Because the quality of poster sessions is a major priority of the Society, 2005 Fall Meeting Chairs will recognize the best presentations at the four evening poster sessions to be held in the Hynes Convention Center, November 28– December 1.

A prize of up to $500 will be awarded by the Chairs to the presenting author(s) of the winning poster. One or more awards will be made each evening. The Meeting Chairs will select the winners on the basis of the poster’s technical content and presentation quality (not necessarily equally weighted). Winning posters will be displayed prominently for the remainder of the meeting. Please plan to post your paper between 12:00 noon and 5:00 p.m. Judging for the Meeting Chairs’ Best Poster Awards will occur between 5:00 and 8:00 p.m. and general viewing by meeting attendees will occur between 8:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m.
