<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The faculty have been requested by Prof Billy Kerr to nominate 10 PGR students for a poster session/competition associated with the launch of the Strathclyde Doctoral School. We therefore need to identify
PGR students who have recently presented a poster that has been short-listed or won a prize at an international conference. As you will see from the email below. We need to provide nominations by the 7<sup>th</sup> Sept. I would therefore like to ask you,
through your knowledge of the PGR students in your departments, to provide the names of up to 3 students from your department who have been honoured for a poster presentation within the last year.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>

seeking a small number of high quality posters from current PhD students, who have, perhaps, already presented their work in poster format and may even have been award-winning at external research conferences. Hence, we are encouraging the re-use of posters
that have already been prepared by the student. <span class="apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
