ECR Prizes

We will run 2 competitions for ECR*, including our prestigious ECR Keynote Prize, as well as prizes awarded for the best poster presentations. The awards will be judged by a panel of the Scientific Advisory Board on quality of presentation, scientific rigour and importance to our field. The judges’ decisions will be final. Winners of the ECR Keynote prizes and the poster prizes will present a 15-minute ECR keynote and a 5-minute presentation, respectively, in our main auditorium. The Winners of the ECR Keynote prizes will also receive a complementary ticket to our 21st gala dinner in Olympic Museum.

*We define ECRs as students or postdoctoral researchers within 5 years of the award of their doctoral degree. Proof of status will be requested during the submission process.
