Review
|
|
The nomination and finalists selection period is from January through March each year before the conference. A review committee of CSTE members and staff use a scoring sheet and select winners. Of those abstracts that met the criteria,
up to five finalists in each area may be chosen by the review committee. Finalists are announced May 1, and their posters are shown at the Annual Conference. The review committee scores finalists during the
conference using a score sheet based on the aforementioned criteria.
