Pre-register for the 'Best presentation course'
Deadline to register your interest: 29 May 2025
We are considering offering two virtual courses on effective poster design and practical skills for presenting at poster exhibitions, led by Serena di Palma (Lecturer, Assistant Professor, Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences of Utrecht University).
The course would be free of charge. If your abstract has been selected for a poster or a poster pitch, we strongly encourage you to express your interest. To ensure the course is worthwhile for both participants and the instructor, we will only organize it if at least 10 people register.
By registering via this form, you express a firm interest and commit to attending if the course goes ahead. Please note that we may decide not to offer the course if there is insufficient interest.
