We host an annual Students on the Beamlines Scientific Poster Competition for student groups who have conducted research at the Canadian Light Source within the last year. There are two categories: Judged Competition and Public Competition. The winner of the Judges' Vote receives a trophy and the Public Competition receives a plaque to be displayed at their schools. The Judged competition is held in conjunction with the CLS' Annual Users Meeting each year while the Public competition runs online.
Our Students on the Beamlines program gives an authentic and immersive science research experience for students, which includes communicating experimental findings with a scientific poster. If students are creating a scientific poster, be sure to check out our Poster Resources for some tips and tricks to creating science posters. Or reach out to the CLS Education Team and we would be happy to help!
