CALL FOR POSTERS
The Caribbean Science Foundation (CSF) is keen to ascertain the scope and nature of the S&T research in the Region. For the Session “S&T Research in the Region” we can accommodate about fifteen to twenty posters showcasing some of the S&T research in the Caribbean.
In order to submit a poster, authors must first submit a one-page summary by Friday October 18, 2013. Summaries and the follow-on posters may cover pure or applied science and technology. Summaries will be evaluated for quality and, if accepted, an invitation to present a poster will be sent to the primary author by Friday October 25, 2013.
Instructions for Submitting Poster Summaries
Summaries (and posters) must adhere to the following content:
-
(1) Clearly stated objectives of the research
(2) Approaches and methodologies used in the research
(3) Summary of the main results
(4) Discussion of the short or long-term anticipated societal impact on the Caribbean community
Summaries will be evaluated based on the above four criteria.
-
Summaries, including figures and text, must not be longer than one-page with 1-inch margins, and must fit on 8 1/2″ x 11″ letter paper.
The title of the presentation should be bold in 12-pt font and followed by one return.
Author list and institutions should be in 10-pt font and followed by one return.
All text in the body must be typed single-spaced with a 10-pt font, preferably the Calibri font.
Whenever possible, use the symbol font for Greek and scientific symbols.
Provide any grant acknowledgments for your research (e,g., NIH-CR-12345) at the end of your summary and on your poster.
Summaries must be submitted online as both PDF and WORD files by e-mail to events.csf@gmail.com.
Summaries received after October 18, 2013 may not be accepted.
Accepted one-page summaries will be published as received in a booklet to be handed out to the Workshop attendees.
Submitting a summary does not constitute or guarantee Workshop registration. Authors should register for the Workshop here.
The primary author may submit only one summary at this meeting.
Poster space is limited. Poster display size is about 1 meter by 1 meter (3.3 feet by 3.3 feet) and oversize posters will not be allowed.
