All persons who submit the registration form and upload an abstract and poster by the November 10, 2025, deadline will automatically be accepted to present their poster at this event.

Deadline for Submission of Registration Form and Uploading a Poster: 
November 10, 2025 at 11:59 PM

Submission of a registration form and uploading of a poster by the deadline is required to be able to participate in the forum. All students submitting an abstract and poster by the deadline will be able to present their posters virtually during the Forum. We must have your poster and registration information in order to build the website and display your abstract and poster. We are not able to accept late registrations or late posters.

Note: the registration form will require uploading a pdf of an abstract. The character limit is 3000 characters (not including the title). No figures or images can accompany the abstract text. 

Each poster presentation during the Research Forum must be done by a single person (we are unable to accommodate multiple poster presenters).

You will receive email notification of the time of your presentation and further instructions for accessing the virtual site by December 2, 2025 (1 week before the event).  

Faculty and Post-doc Judges: Faculty, fellows, and post-docs interested in judging should fill out the Call for Faculty Judges.
