AllerGen’s annual Trainee Poster Competition placed the Network’s student research “front and centre,” offering trainees the opportunity to showcase their work and receive feedback from leading clinicians and scientists. Between 2005 and 2019, more than 400 trainee posters were presented and adjudicated.


“The Trainee Poster Competition was a unique experience where I had the opportunity to present my research findings to both clinical and basic science researchers. I received very useful advice that I can take back and apply to my research.”
