Student Poster Contest
2023 Information Coming, below is 2020 Information:
I highly encourage each student to submit abstracts and prepare posters to present at the Mid-Atlantic Nutrition Conference on TBA date. This year we will again have a graduate and undergraduate competition section and each student will have an abstract made available online post-conference. Posters will be evaluated by three industry judges (one from each area: dairy, equine and poultry). The student must be present on TBA to answer questions during the morning break. This is the judging period where the posters will be evaluated for scientific merit, organization and presentation, and student knowledge of the project.

Abstracts must be submitted by TBA and be sent directly to Dr. Carey Williams.
This year we are pleased to offer awards to 1st -3rd place in each division, sponsored by Cumberland Valley Analytical and MARS Equestrian.
