Charlie Sampson Poster Award The Charlie Sampson Poster Award was created to commemorate Charlie's contributions to the MBSW since its inception 31 years ago. To qualify for the award, the author(s) of the poster must be current students or students who graduated in 2008. The award consists of a $200 cash award to be presented at the banquet on Tuesday night. Posters will be judged on content, originality, presentation, and contribution to a biopharmaceutical issue. For the judges to have time to judge each poster, a copy of the corresponding poster panels and a paper describing more fully the purpose of the poster must be submitted on or before April 21, 2008. Please provide the poster or poster panels, paper and abstract in one of the following formats: MS PowerPoint, MS Word, MS Word compatible, or PDF. The members of the panel of judges have biopharmaceutical backgrounds and have been involved with MBSW in some capacity over the years. The award is to be presented at the banquet on Tuesday night, 20 May 2008. The posters can be placed for display beginning on Tuesday, 20 May. The poster session is a great way to participate in the workshop. A limited number of financial grants are available to students, with preference given to students presenting a poster or paper. Please apply for financial grants as early as possible, as they are limited.
