Awards
Best Student Paper and Best Poster Awards
Papers based on the independent research of the graduate student who is presenting the work are eligible for the Best Student Paper Award. The abstract must be identified as a student paper at the time of submission. The award is made based on the quality of the written abstract and the oral or poster presentation. The awards will be presented at the next year's Device Research Conference.
