Poster Information
POSTER INFORMATION
A poster session at the AMP Global Congress is the presentation of current research information by the first author of an accepted abstract determined by the Global Organizing Committee. Poster sessions offer the opportunity for delegates to learn about a specific research outcome with respect to molecular diagnostics in more detail, as well as conduct back-and-forth discussions with the potential for future collaborations. Additionally, first authors of selected abstracts will be invited to present during a programmed scientific session.
