Applicants will receive email confirmation of receipt of poster abstracts and will be notified of acceptance by mid-July.

The NIH Research Festival, scheduled for Oct. 5-8, is the annual showcase for the intramural programs. A Postdoctoral Job Fair, sponsored by the NIH Office of Education, will kick off the festival on Tuesday, Oct. 5, with the plenary sessions and mini-symposia to be held on Oct. 6 and 7. The plenary symposia this year will focus on advances in transplantation research, gene therapy and medical imaging.

The Technical Sales Association will once again sponsor the scientific equipment show on Thursday and Friday, Oct. 7 and 8, along with other yet-to-be-announced events.
