Call for posters & flash presentations<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

All ASPIS cluster members will have the opportunity to present their research through posters and flash presentations, aiming to engage the attendees in lively and informative discussions. We particularly encourage young researchers<\/strong> and<\/strong> ASPIS Academy members<\/strong> to display their work. One poster session will be held on each day of the symposium. The scientific flash presentation session will take place in the evening of the first day to give the opportunity to young researchers to pitch their poster during a 5-minute presentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Posters should focus on any of the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Research carried out at ONTOX, PrecisionTox, or RISK-HUNT3R partner institutions directly contributing to ASPIS;<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Research carried out within the cross-project collaborative ASPIS Task Forces (former Working Groups).<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If you are an ASPIS cluster member and you are interested in presenting a poster or a flash presentation, do not forget to indicate it during registration. <\/strong>You will receive a separate abstract submission form later. 
    A maximum of 40 posters and 9 flash presentations can be presented during the ASPIS OS 2026 by ASPIS cluster memebrs. Abstracts will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis or until 15 June 2026<\/strong>. Awards will be granted to the best 3 posters.<\/em>
