Flash & Dash Presentations associated with a Poster:

Flash & Dash presentations are for graduate students, post-docs and early
career professionals.  Presenters will give a short (5 minute) 'flash and
dash' presentation of the work highlighted in their poster prior to the
poster sessions.  This exercise is expected to increase the visibility of
your research, and attract interest to your poster during the poster
session.  Selection of Flash & Dash Presenters will be based on review of
associated abstract or paper.  Individuals who indicated interest (when
registering a poster) in giving a F&D Presentations associated with their
poster will be notified no later than November 18.
