Poster Competition Presentation Process and Awards
Posters submitted for the Poster Competition by residents and fellows will be pre-judged and selected by FSP judges
based on quality, innovation, approach/design, and visuals. Posters will be judged twice and are subject to an
additional preliminary review to determine eligibility. If judges deem that changes need to be made for posters to
be eligible for presentation, lead authors will be contacted by email. The first judging will be done before the
conference, and it will be a blind review. The second judging will be conducted during the poster presentation live
at the conference in the FSP Poster Hall. The scores from both judging sessions will be combined to determine the
winners. The first-place winner will receive $500, the second-place winner will receive $250, and the third-place
winner will receive $150. To be considered for the competition, you must you must be a resident or
fellow and you
must submit your poster by the submission deadline.
Onsite judging times will be assigned for residents and fellows that are participating in the Poster Competition, and authors will be notified of their presentation time. Presentation times will occur on Friday, February 17 and Saturday, February 18 so please make plans to be available on both days. All lead poster authors are required to register for the conference taking place on February 17-19, 2023 at Disney's Contemporary Resort in Orlando to present their poster to judges.*

Pathology is fun, but it can also be hard! Every day, we are faced with challenging cases that require us to open
books, read new articles, consult our friends and colleagues, and sometimes consult the experts. To share such cases
with our membership, we will be holding our 2nd annual Rare & Interesting Case Competition at our winter FSP meeting
and we need your help!
Community pathologists, junior faculty, and trainees with a faculty mentor are all encouraged to submit their rare
and interesting cases for a chance to present at the FSP 2023 Annual Meeting.
The submission window has closed. We will announce the top 5 cases soon!
