Poster Competition

Attention all researchers, practitioners and trainees!

Submit your poster for the chance to be selected to present your work as part of the 28th National Dementias Conference.

The Dementias 2027 poster competition is the perfect opportunity to initiate discussion with colleagues and share your work on dementia diagnosis, treatment and care.

E-posters are displayed throughout the networking space and can be accessed throughout the conference. Authors/presenters will be required to attend in-person.

All accepted posters will be displayed on screens in the exhibition hall throughout the two-day conference, allowing authors and delegates to view and access the research at their convenience.

Each presenter or designated author representative will be allocated a specific time slot during lunch on Day One to discuss their work and answer any questions from delegates. Delegates will have the opportunity to vote for their favourite poster throughout the event, with voting closing at the end of first networking break on Day Two.

The winning poster will be announced by the event chairs after lunch on the Day Two.
