APHA Statistics Section Student Competition

APHA Statistics Section Student Competition

The American Public Health Statistics Section is accepting abstract submissions for student research poster and oral presentation sessions. Students wishing to be considered for these sessions should submit an abstract online through APHA abstract submission system by the abstract submission deadline (currently 4/30/2022), and fill out the competition form (https://tinyurl.com/2p89w5ek) with a two-page summary or prospectus of research along with a letter from a faculty member attesting to the author’s student status by May 31, 2022. Information for submission of abstracts can be found at https://apha.org/Events-and-Meetings/Annual/Call-for-Abstracts

When submitting your abstract, please submit it under the session “Student oral presentations” or “Student poster presentations”, even if it may be thematically related to other topics on the topic list. If a student abstract was submitted for oral presentation but is not accepted as an oral presentation, it will automatically be considered as a poster submission. All accepted student abstracts will be considered for the Student Research Competition. An award will be given for the Best Student Oral Presentation.  In order to be eligible for the student competition, you must be a student at the conference in October 2022 (those graduating in May/June 2022 are not eligible).

For questions, please contact Dr. Guang Xu (guangxu [at] marian [dot] edu) and Dr. Niloofar Ramezani (nramezan [at] gmu [dot] edu).
