Free Networking Cards for Poster Presenters Are you presenting a poster at the Annual Meeting this year? If so, you already have 25 pre-printed Net- working Cards waiting for you. Networking Cards are like business cards, but designed just for scientists. They provide your contact information, title of your abstract, your presentation date/time, and abstract content. Hand them out to oth- er researchers before, during, or after your poster presentation. Networking cards will be available for pick up in the Exhibit Hall. Look for more infor- mation in an email sent to you in January. Sponsored by Quartzy. com, the world’s lead- ing free online lab management platform.
