Winners of the Fort Detrick Spring Research Festival scientific poster competition, which was held May 3-4, were presented with their awards during a ceremony June 24 at Fort Detrick's Community Activities Center.

The SRF was hosted by the U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command in conjunction with the National Interagency Confederation for Biological Research, a committee comprising representatives from each of the research entities at Fort Detrick and NCI at Frederick.

The event included two seminar sessions, a keynote speaker, a poster blitz and two poster sessions. During the event, scientific staff, including students, technical support staff, postdoctoral fellows, and principal investigators, had the opportunity to present their research to the joint scientific communities.

Approximately 1,000 people attended the event, which is in its 20th year.
