Poster and Paper of the Day Awards 2012

In 2012, for each day of the conference the scientific committee will award a prize for 'poster of the day' and 'paper of the day'. Each winner will receive a year's subscription to the Sage journal Journal of Research in Nursing.

Poster of the day prize

The poster of the day prize is voted for by all the RCN 2012 conference delegates, and is based on the content, interest and impact of the poster. Delegates will receive the daily nomination forms in their welcome packs as they arrive at the conference.

Paper of the day prize

These awards will be judged by RCN Research Society's Scientific Committee on the persuasiveness of written nominations received from concurrent session chairs. Chairs will be invited to nominate papers that they believe they will 'still be talking about in twelve months' time'.
