Medical students, residents, and fellows are encouraged to submit an abstract on their research for possible inclusion in this year’s poster symposium at the MMA’s Empowering Physicians Conference on September 27 at the American Swedish Institute in Minneapolis.
The poster symposium will offer physicians-in-training an opportunity to share their work and research with their peers and future colleagues.
Primary authors of accepted posters will receive complimentary registration for the conference and will be eligible to win a $500 cash prize. Posters will be voted on by conference attendees and the winners will be announced prior to the evening keynote speaker - Dr. Glaucomflecken (a.k.a William E. Flanary, MD).
Due to space constraints, only 12 posters will be accepted. Applicants should submit their poster abstracts online by July 15.
For more information about the poster symposium, visit the MMA website.
