Student Poster Competition

PACIFICHEM 2010 will once again conduct a Student Poster Competition. Participation in the Student Poster Competition is indicated by submitting an abstract to one of the symposia within the technical program and marking the option to participate in the Student Poster Competition. An abstract must be accepted first into the technical program as a poster presentation by the symposium organizers before it can be considered for the Student Poster Competition.

We encourage you to forward this notice to your colleagues nationally and internationally, to submit your abstracts, and to join us in Hawaii this December.
