Accepted QTUG Abstracts
Presented on August 13, 2008, 9:15-10:30am
LINKS:
Check out exciting opportunities (link). I would love SMEP/QTUG participants to apply for (and receive!) these. Contact me for help applying for any of these or other opportunities. Lisa Harlowlharlow@uri.edu
As in previous years, participants will also have an opportunity to present their own work for review and suggestions. The deadline for submitting a research poster is extended to Sunday, July 19, 2009!!!!!!. Anyone who is accepted for participation this year at QTUG in Toronto is invited to submit a poster. We will offer monetary awards ($100 to $500) for the top posters. It is fine if your abstract has been presented before, but make sure that the submission to QTUG is at least somewhat different from previous submission(s).
