Contributions

Presenting at a conference is a key part of communication for any researcher or academic and a chance to learn about the newest developments in your research field.

Traditionally, there have been a range of activities during Burwalls, such as:

lightning talks of 1-4 minutes
short and medium academic presentations (after submission of an abstract) by biostatistics teachers and clinicians
keynote talks
workshops
discussion sessions of topics relevant to biostatistics, medical statistics teaching, and career development.

We are keen to involve and encourage new postgraduate and postdoctoral teachers and newly appointed lecturers who are at the start of their teaching careers. A poster session might occur if numbers are sufficient.

Please let the organisers know if you have any suggestions or ideas for activities in this area.
