Poster Networking Session
Poster Networking Session
We invite you to share your great work of implementing a public health project or program through a poster displayed at the 2024 Wisconsin Cancer Summit. It’s an easy and free opportunity to network with colleagues and let others know about your successes.
What is the Poster Networking Session?
The Wisconsin Cancer Summit Poster Networking Session will give our Summit attendees time to learn more about the projects and programs happening in Wisconsin through posters on the walls of our conference room.
How does this Poster Networking Session work?
Organizations and community members will have the opportunity to stand next to their posters and talk about the projects they have been working on during the Poster Networking Session. During the poster session, conference attendees can wander around to browse the posters. The poster presenters are expected to stay near their poster for the duration of the session so that other participants can come and listen to them talk about their work and ask them questions.
