Student Presentation Awards

Papers will be organized into sessions based on scientific content of the abstract.

The abstract should be no more than 250 words and should be in the format of the example below, which shows how to handle multi-authored papers and to identify those in competition for student awards (with a superscript "A" at the start of the abstract). Use an asterisk to indicate the author who will give the presentation.

^AHOW TO PREPARE A PERFECT ABSTRACT. Neva Dunnit^* and Major Professor, Department of Biology, Flicker College, Robin, NY 12345, and Ida Know, Wildlife Department, Univ. Birds, Birdsville, NH 01234.
Begin the abstract on the next line. For multi-authored papers, put an asterisk (*) after the name of the person presenting the paper. Papers eligible for student awards should have an A (superscript "A") at the beginning of the title, as this one does. On lines below the abstract, give the name and email address of the person to contact if questions arise, whether the paper is intended for oral presentation or a poster, and A-V needs for oral presentations (incl. PowerPoint software version). Oral presentations will be limited to 15 min, including questions and technical difficulties. Posters may not exceed 36" wide by 48" tall and must be in place by 11 am Friday, 23 March. Abstracts should summarize findings rather than methods. Proposals for oral presentations will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis until the schedule is full. Please indicate if you are willing to chair a paper session.
