DO YOU HAVE USEFUL INFORMATION OR IDEAS YOU WANT TO SHARE WITH OTHER IPPS MEMBERS? IF SO, YOU ARE INVITED TO SUBMIT A POSTER AT THE 2002 ANNUAL MEETING! IT’S FUN AND EASY!

WHY PREPARE A POSTER?

Posters allow you to share your knowledge with others at the annual meeting, providing fellow propagators with the opportunity to learn something new. Remember that the motto of IPPS is "To Seek and To Share"

WHO CAN SUBMIT A POSTER?

All IPPS members, students, and researchers are invited to submit a poster. A listing of poster titles and authors will be included in the program materials. (Space for poster is limited, so be sure to submit your poster information early! Please see the reverse side of this form.)

WHEN DO I SET UP MY POSTER?

Posters may be set up on Wednesday, October 30, 2002 between 1:00PM and 5:00PM in the poster display area. The poster session will be available for viewing during the annual meeting.
