University of Illinois College of Medicine
2009 Research Symposium
Pre-Clinical Research Oral Presentation Requirements
An MSP tradition is for our M3-M4 students to present their research at the Research Symposium. Your audience is pre M1 through practicing physicians. Your challenge is to focus your teaching points around this audience.
There is a student speakers committee that will be contacting you and helping you. Please direct any questions to them:
- Tana Repella: repella@illinois.edu
- Jason Slade: jslade@illinois.edu
- Emilia Poppe: emilia_poppe@hotmail.com
- You will need to present a 10 minute talk highlighting clinical aspects/applications of your research. Your talk will be followed by a 5 minute Q&A session. Because your talk is limited to only 10 minutes, you should plan on presenting no more than four points that are clinically relevant. A good rule of thumb is 30 sec intro, 2-3 min. per main point, 30 sec conclusion. When you present your slides keep to 2 minutes per slide.
- We will need the title of your presentation, an abstract of your presentation, a brief biographical sketch, a picture for us to include in the program and your A/V needs. In particular, for A/V, what operating system and application will you be using? We want to make sure that we have the compatible equipment for you. In addition, please feel free to stop by the SA/MSP Office if you need your picture taken for the program.
- A required rehearsal will be held on April 13 or April 14 (you can choose). We will
be in touch with you regarding further details.
- Complete and submit this form by
