AASV Poster Sessions

The information below is intended for those whose abstracts have been selected for poster presentation in the 2016 AASV Annual Meeting (see "Calls for Abstracts" at www.aasv.org/annmtg for abstract submission due dates and details).

The Veterinary Student, Research Topics, and Industrial Partners Poster Sessions will be held Sunday, February 28 and Monday, February 29, 2016 at the Hyatt Regency in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Posters may be oriented horizontally OR vertically, and must fit within a display area that is 3 1/2 feet wide by 4 feet tall. Materials for mounting the posters will be provided.

Poster presenters must submit a written paper for the proceedings of the meeting, due November 16. The paper is limited to one page of text plus one table or figure, formatted according to the Author Guidelines.
