ApplyNeurotoxicology Undergraduate Posters (NeuroUP) Showcase
Description: The NeuroUP Showcase highlights research by undergraduate and post-baccalaureate trainees while providing opportunities to connect with current NTSS members. The program offers trainees a valuable platform to strengthen their scientific presentation skills, expand their professional networks, and engage in meaningful conversations about research, careers, and future opportunities in neurotoxicology.
Ultimately, the NeuroUP Showcase aims to support early-career researchers by showcasing their work, creating professional connections, and helping develop the next generation of neurotoxicologists.
The success of the NeuroUP Showcase also depends on the engagement of NTSS members who volunteer to attend trainee poster presentations and provide encouragement, constructive feedback, and career guidance. Professionals from across sectors including principal investigators, postdoctoral scholars, senior graduate students, and other NTSS members are encouraged to participate as mentors and help support the professional development of emerging neurotoxicologists.
Instruction for Trainee Participant: Submit your accepted poster abstract to the NTSS Graduate Student and Postdoctoral Representatives. In your submission email, please include the following information:
- Your poster session date and time
- Your mentor’s name and contact information
Submission deadline: February 5, 2027
Instruction for Mentor Participant: The NTSS Graduate Student and Postdoctoral Representatives will request availability from NTSS members to attend trainee poster sessions. Your participation as a mentor is essential to the success of this program and helps create a welcoming, supportive environment for undergraduate and post-baccalaureate trainees exploring careers in neurotoxicology.
Based on volunteer availability, mentors will receive a follow-up communication with their assigned poster sessions. Mentors will be asked to attend approximately 1–3 trainee poster presentations and provide encouragement, feedback, and career guidance.
