Curated Poster Presentations are tied directly to ITE council showcase meetings. Presenters will first deliver a concise overview of their work during a relevant ITE Council Showcase Meeting before transitioning into a dedicated poster session taking place during a dedicated poster session after the council meeting. Following the annual meeting, presenters will also have the opportunity to participate in a council-sponsored webinar to further extend the visibility and impact of their work.

​

Curated posters are listed below by ITE council or committee topic along with the council showcase meeting time and the poster session time.
