Call for Poster Abstracts
Submission of Poster Abstracts
Participants are invited to submit abstracts for poster presentations. These should give a brief description of the title and topic.
All abstracts will be assessed by members of the International Scientific Programme Committee. The assessors will judge the abstracts according to the relevance to CINP, standard of English, objectivity of statement, description of what was done, suitability of methods to aims, conclusions confirmed by objective results, ethics, scientific value, potential clinical value, originality of work and overall impression. All accepted abstracts will be published in the online International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology (IJNP) and online on the congress website.

showPoster Sessions
Poster sessions will be held from Monday 4 June to Wednesday 6 June 2012. These sessions offer an interactive forum for the exchange of information and a means to communicate ideas, research, and programmes.
Poster authors must attend these sessions to give feedback to conference attendees who stop by to ask questions. At this congress, posters will be grouped by topics for the convenience of those attending the sessions.
showPoster Awards
Clinical, translational, and basic neuroscience research awards are given. Those presenting the best posters receive a certificate. These awards serve to encourage young scientists (under 35) who are actively involved in clinical and pre-clinical research. The final selection of Poster Awards will be made on the basis of the study’s scientific excellence.
