History of the Women in Science and Medicine Poster Session
To celebrate the 75th anniversary of UT Southwestern and the 25th anniversary of WISMAC’s founding, WISMAC hosted its first poster session in conjunction with the 2018 Visiting Professorship. Graduate students, postdoctoral trainees, and junior faculty were encouraged to submit an abstract and present a poster. More than 100 abstracts were chosen to be presented after the Visiting Professorship University Lecture Series, and two were selected as winners. Winners of the Poster Session were awarded $700 each to put toward their travels to scientific conferences. The Celebration of Women in Science and Medicine Poster Session has been such a success that the Committee has decided to make it a recurring event.
