Sophomores, juniors, seniors, postbaccalaureates, and graduate students in the biomedical and behavioral sciences, including mathematics, are invited to submit an abstract for the 2009 Annual Biomedical Research Conference for Minority Students (ABRCMS).

All submitters must read the entire Call for Abstracts before submitting an abstract.

ABRCMS gives students an opportunity to present their research through poster or oral presentations and expand their scientific and professional development knowledge through innovative sessions, as well as networking opportunities. Participants also learn about graduate schools, summer research opportunities, and postdoctoral fellowships by participating in the exhibits program encompassing over 400 representatives.

In 2008, more than 1,200 students presented their innovative research in ten diverse scientific disciplines throughout the four-day conference. At the closing banquet, 126 undergraduate students were recognized for their outstanding presentations.

Doctoral-level graduate students (completed preliminary exams/course work), if accepted, will present their poster presentation in a separate postdoctoral recruitment hall. This hall will host both poster presentations and exhibitors promoting their postdoctoral opportunities.
