As part of our 4th International conference we are offering students the chance to take part in a poster competition.
*****The Competition has now closed*****
Here are the details of how to take part:
Masters’, PhD students and Early Career Researchers are encouraged to submit poster presentations on their latest mental health related research.
Conference attendees will be able to view posters during the conference which will be displayed next to the conference room, with poster presenters able to stand next to them.
Please note, we will only have capacity to show 25 posters at the conference.
Posters must:
- Convey either a piece of original research in mental health (includes results of systematic review/meta-analysis); or be a theoretical analysis; or propose a future collaborative project.
- Clearly present the rationale for the research study/proposal.
- Be engaging/interesting.
Posters will be reviewed by the organisers on the basis of scientific quality, originality and presentation. Preference will be given to those whose topics relate to the conference content.
Presenters should register for the conference (eg at student/early bird rate if appropriate). If selected, the poster lead author/presenter will receive a lunch free of charge at the conference and a ticket to the wine reception.
All selected posters will be eligible for the IoMH Poster Prize and the Audience Choice Poster Prize which will be announced on the day. Each prize is a voucher worth £200.
Format:
- Recommended size is A0. Posters must be prepared as portrait, not landscape.
- Please hang your poster at 8.30-9.00am on the day of the conference.
- All poster boards will be organised by session and poster IDs. Please make sure you hang your poster in the correct place.
- You will then have an opportunity to discuss your poster with delegates on Wednesday 20th at any time but especially during lunch and tea/coffee breaks.
- Ensure you have copyright permission to use any images (and appropriately credit images)
