Every year the bioProcessUK Conference runs a popular Bursary Poster Competition, where approximately 25-30 high calibre postgraduate students and post doctoral researchers have an opportunity to display a poster showcasing their research in biological medicines and bioprocessing. 

A popular feature of the conference is the early career “poster flash” session where selected bursary winners will take to the virtual stage with a short oral presentation.

The competition also provides students with a chance to build their network by engaging with industry professionals. 

Presenting a poster is beneficial to career and professional development of young researchers. 

Benefits of participating in the poster prize competition include:

• Make connections – build networks and share information and research with academia and companies across the UK
• Enhance professional development
• Present research achievements to a wide audience
• Advertise work to potential employers
• Show-off creative ability and discuss ideas –  inspiration for new projects comes out of questions asked, and opportunities for new collaborations are often found.

The deadline for applications is Friday 13 October 2023.  Please email your entry to the events team at biaev[email protected]. Judging will be done by conference delegates and the overall winner will be awarded a prize.
