POSTER AWARDS
The following poster presentations were selected by a panel of judges, rating Novelty of Work, Scientific Significance,
Quality of Presentation and Overall. Judges were not allowed to review poster sections in which they had a poster submission.
The top posters were then revisited and ranked according to combined scores. To view poster presenters' abstracts, please
go to the MSCBB '07 program.
A single 1st place prize, two second place prizes and three third place prizes were awarded. Second and third place winners are
listed in alphabetical order, not by ranking.
