Divisions Self-Guided Poster Walks, ePoster Discussions & Awards
Each year the ADLM Scientific Divisions select ten notable abstracts from their subject field that they would like to highlight for their members and the general audience. These ten abstracts may also include the Division's award winning abstract.
| Session A: Tuesday, July 28 | Session B: Wednesday, July 29 | |
|
|
Posters will be displayed on their assigned days from 9:30am to 5:00pm in the Poster Hall. Poster numbers that start with an "A" will be displaying on July 28th. Poster numbers that start with a "B" will be displaying on July 29th.
Authors will be available from 1:30pm to 2:30pm on their assigned days.
ADLM’s 13 scientific divisions allow members to join specialty groups that focus on their specific area(s) of interest or expertise within the field of laboratory medicine. The Divisions’ main goals are to widen circles of colleagues and contacts, develop new collaborations, exchange information with experts in the field, and discuss in depth the latest research, technology, regulations, and management practices in laboratory medicine.

ePoster Discussions
ePoster Discussions are an opportunity for 20-30 attendees to hear brief presentations of 4-5 topically related and well-reviewed posters in their scientific discipline. ePosters will be presented on a 55” screen in a central location within the poster hall. Each presenter will have approximately 8 minutes, with 4-5 minutes to present their ePoster and the remaining balance used for audience questions. These discussion sessions are moderated by an officer from the presenting Scientific Division.
