The Student Research Presentation Award is given for an excellent presentation at the Annual Meeting in Vancouver 2009. Entries will be judged on the quality of both the presentation and the underlying research. Up to two awards will be given, one for a talk in a contributed paper session and one for a poster presentation. Each award will consist of a certificate and a $500 prize.
