Student Poster Contest

I highly encourage each student to submit abstracts and prepare posters to present at the Mid-Atlantic Nutrition Conference on March 29, 2012. This year we will again have a graduate and undergraduate competition section and each student will have a published abstract in the proceedings. Posters will be evaluated by three industry judges (one from each area: dairy, equine and poultry). The student must be present on March 29th to answer questions during the morning break. This is the judging period where the posters will be evaluated for scientific merit, organization and presentation, and student knowledge of the project.
