• Notes to presenters: - All submitted oral and poster presentations have been accepted!

Talks: Oral presentations are to be 15 minutes (timed) with an additional 5 minutes allocated for questions. Please bring your presentation on a memory stick or CD so that we can load it to the lecture hall computer (deleted afterwards) five minutes before the session of speakers that includes your talk (if not earlier). Powerpoint files for both Mac and PC, as well as Keynote files for Mac are fine. We can accommodate a provided laptop, but doing so could cause delays. We will have a laser pointer and remote control for advancing the slides. Posters: Posters boards are 4 feet wide but wider posters can be accommodated. Please contact us as soon as possible to notify us of a wider poster. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask via acs2007@chem.plu.edu.

• Abstracts: Closed

Student research presentations may be in either oral or poster format. Abstracts should be submitted online by April 27th, using the abstract submission form below. For talks, we will consider as many as we have slots available. If more oral presentations are submitted than can be accommodated in the schedule, individuals not selected to give a talk will be invited to present a poster instead. If not all submitted oral presentations can be accommodated, presentations will be selected first to include representatives from all institutions, and second to provide a breadth of research areas.
