The Best Poster Presentation Awards
The Poster Award recognizes poster presentations characterized by
excellence in research, clarity in presentation, and personal knowledge
in a discussion with the judges at poster sessions of the ISPlasma.
Selection Process
In the first round of judging, around 20 posters will be selected as the nominee of the poster presentation awards based on their presentation, personal knowledge, effective layout and visual presentation for each day. The first round winners will be displayed at the Exhibision Room in the each next day.
Around 60 submission from this round will be selected as finalists.
On the basis of the judges' scores, several winners will be selected and announced at the award ceremony to be held at Mar. 8, 2018.
The Winners are as follows. Congratulations!
