Poster presentation awards

Op de jaarlijkse VLIZ Jongerencontactdag Mariene Wetenschappen in februari-maart wordt zowel door een Vakjury als door het aanwezige publiek telkens één beste poster geselecteerd. De prijs voor elk van beide bekroningen bedraagt 125 EUR. Hieronder vindt u de laureaten van de posterprijzen, evenals de eervolle vermeldingen voor de als tweede en derde geëindigde posterinzendingen.
