Awards for the best Visual Presentations 2020
The EU PVSEC Poster Awards aim to encourage and to give additional recognition to high quality contributions that combine novelty and excellence in scientific content in their presentation. A total of 16 presenters were awarded, one from each visual session.
The ceremony of the annual awards for the most outstanding Visual Presentations took place during the Closing Session on Friday, 11 September 2020.
Aiming to increase the visibility of poster awards winners and as a recognition to the quality of their presentation, the winners were presented on the dedicated Poster Awards Winners session on Thursday 10 September, from 15:15 to 16:45. This session was composed of 2 parts: The above mentioned presentation of the winners and a chat discussion in a dedicated virtual room together with the winners and interested audience.
Congratulations to all the Poster Award Winners 2020!
