The goal of the Poster Session is to promote an exchange between researchers and clinicians and help people who feel intimidated by jumping into research see how much fun they can have. Our field grows and thrives when we make space for more voices and knowledge. The crowd is lively, the conversation is warm, and this is a great chance to practice sharing what you know.

Thank you to each of our Poster Session Presenters and their incredible work!
