The Programme Committee have decided that poster presentations should form a much more important part of our scientific meetings. Therefore, from 2005 the Association will award one prize each of £500.00 to the best poster presented at the Summer Scientific Meeting and at the Winter Scientific Meeting.
Allergan have kindly agreed to take over the funding of this prize from 2006-2007. Allergan have now withdrawn sponsorship of this prize. BAPRAS will fund the Poster Prize for the 2008 Summer and Winter Meetings. From 2009 the Poster Prize will no longer be awarded.
