Transitions Pop-Up Poster Fair Submissions

THE CALL FOR ABSTRACTS IS NOW CLOSED. SUCCESSFUL CANDIDATES WILL BE NOTIFIED IN LATE JULY.

The Child Health Hub in Transition to Adult Healthcare Poster Fair provides opportunity to illustrate the richness of activity in many innovative areas from regional, national, and international perspectives. We encourage submissions from both clinical, research and family/youth participants.

Posters will be judged (more information to come) and awards will be handed out for best poster in the category of fostering collaboration, leading change/advocacy and engagement/youth empowerment. Award winners will showcase their work in a rapid fire presentation (10 mins) on December 2, 2023.

Posters

The Poster Fair will feature two categories and authors will be asked to submit their abstract in one of the following:

  1. Scientific Posters: This category is reserved for posters presenting completed projects/initiatives, with realized outcomes. Posters in this category should be able to demonstrate rigorous scientific methodology and significant results. Also, conclusions drawn must be supported by the evidence presented.
  2. Quality Improvement Posters: This category is reserved for QI projects that use improvement methodology. Posters should be able to tell a story leading to sustained changes that make a difference in service/program delivery or at a system level.

Format

The posters will also be uploaded and available to view on the virtual conference platform. Poster images and an audio clip may be included on the virtual conference platform.
