Student Poster Session


 

ASC 2012 has added a student poster session during the Exhibitor Reception on Tuesday October 9, 2012.  It is your opportunity to show your work to participants and prospective employers, plus mingle with other graduate students. Details about the poster session are given further below.  The poster space is limited, you must RSVP.  The poster space will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis.

 

There are sign up sheets for the other student activities (see http://www.ascinc.org/asc2012/conference-program/student-program/).  These will be at the student desk, which is right next to the regular registration desks beginning Sunday evening. Again, space is limited for these activities, please RSVP.
