Recognizing that techniques and issues related to teaching and the use of computers in research and teaching cross all biomedical disciplines, EB 2005 will combine education posters from all participating societies into two special poster sessions.  Although posters will be on display during exhibit hours Sunday through Tuesday, authors are required to be present during a scheduled day and time for demonstration, which will be listed in the Program.  Authors must prepare a standard-sized poster in addition to the demonstration.

 

• Computers in Research & Teaching - Topic Category 8100-EB

Demonstrate collegial (not for sale) software for research and teaching purposes.  A special area of the exhibit hall will have both IBM PC compatible and MacIntosh computers with Internet access.  Authors are encouraged to bring laptops. For more information, please contact Dr. Jerry Collins at the Department of Biomedical Engineering, VanderbiltUniversity, Nashville, TN,  Tel: 615-322-3003. Email: jerry.collins@vanderbilt.edu

 

• Teaching, Learning and Testing in the Biological and Biomedical Sciences - Topic Category 8200-EB

This is for all teaching/education related posters, regardless of discipline, that do not require a computer.  Posters describing any aspect of teaching and learning in the biological and biomedical sciences should be submitted to this category.  For presentations that involve a demonstration, authors are encouraged to bring the actual materials that they use for teaching.  Tables and electrical outlets will be available at each poster board for demonstrations.
