Competitions
Young Investigator Award Competition
Young investigators (age < 35 years, no permanent position) are encouraged to contribute papers. A jury will select up to five to present their work in a plenary session. The best presentation will receive the "Paul-Callaghan-Award" during the conference dinner. Please refer to the Abstract Submission page to submit a 2-page Abstract and a 1-page Abstract. If the submitted work is not accepted for a Young Investigator Award presentation it may still be accepted as a regular oral presentation (based on the 1-page Abstract).
Poster Competition
The posters of young scientists will be judged by a jury. The best presenter/poster will be announced and receive an award at the conference dinner.

Anything will be accepted: artistic, beautiful, artefact, perfect or ugly. Feel free to submit multiple entries. The winners will also be announced during the conference dinner and will receive a prize. More details and a list of previous winners can be found here.
