Best Poster Awards
For the first time in their history IPWG and IWSSM introduced a competition for the Best Posters with the aim to assign a First Prize and two Runner-up Prizes. |
Eligible posters were those with an Early Career Scientist as first author, or with an Early Career Scientist as co-author who provided a substantial and demonstrable input to the contents of the poster. The Early Career Scientist should have been present at the workshop. |
The Early Career Scientist definition was chosen as per EGU: "An Early Career Scientists (ECS) is an undergraduate or postgraduate (Masters/PhD) student or a scientist who has received his or her highest degree (BSc, MSc, or PhD) within the past seven years (Provided parental leave fell into that period, up to one year of parental leave time may be added per child, where appropriate)." |
