Poster Competition

HUGO is delighted that the Nature Publishing Group, whose publications include Nature, Nature Genetics and Nature Reviews Genetics, will once again be sponsoring a poster competition at HGM2002.

All posters will be reviewed by a panel of judges drawn from the local organising committee and the international scientific programme committee and the winners will be notified at the Conference Dinner on Saturday 16th April. The competition will have a first prize of $1,100.00, a Second Prize of $600.00 and a Third Prize of $200.00. Also all participants at HGM2002 will have the opportunity to take advantage of a 15% reduction on the normal subscription to Nature, Nature Genetics, Nature Reviews Genetics and a range of other titles. Visit the Nature Publishing Group at Booth 20 in the main Exhibit Hall for more details.

Nomenclature Poster Prizes at HGM2002

The HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee (HGNC http://www.gene.ucl.ac.uk/nomenclature/ ) will again be awarding prizes to the authors of the two posters which contain the HIGHEST NUMBER of correct gene symbols. This will be judged by members of the HGNC team with a score of +1 for use of a correct symbol and -3 for an incorrect one. The prizes are a year's subscription to Nature Genetics, and a year's subscription to Nature Reviews Genetics, whom we would like to thank for their support.
