Meeting notes | Poster competition | Student resources | General resources |
The Biomedical Acoustics Student Poster Competition (also known as the Student Paper Award) was established by the Technical Committee to acknowledge high-quality scientific presentations by students doing research in Biomedical Acoustics. The competition also serves as an opportunity for young acousticians to network. Currently, student members of the BATC are eligible to enter the competition, which consists of a two-hour poster session judged by members of BATC. Winners are selected based on a student’s (a) conception, execution, and analysis of the study, (b) ability to present and defend the material, and (c) understanding of how the research fits into the broader scientific context of the BATC. Winners receive a cash award.
