Call for Abstract Submissions and Poster Presenters at the 2025 GSHP Spring Poster Session
This is your opportunity to share your results with pharmacy colleagues from around Georgia at the 2025 GSHP Spring Poster Session on Saturday, March 22, 2025 during the 2025 GSHP Spring Meeting. Posters highlighting innovative services, evaluations, and pharmacy practice model change initiatives are especially encouraged. Encore presentations from national meetings (ASHP, ACCP, etc.) are accepted. Presenting a peer-reviewed poster is an ideal professional development activity for preceptors, both seasoned and new practitioners, residents, and students. The primary (first) poster presenter must be a GSHP member and results must be included on abstract to be accepted. Research-in-progress abstracts with background and methods only will not be accepted. Pharmacy students and residents are especially encouraged to participate. Pharmacy technicians are considered practitioners and are also encouraged to submit.
The GSHP Education Committee will be evaluating all evaluative study and descriptive report abstracts submitted for recognition and designation as "Outstanding GSHP Poster". All accepted submissions will present in person at the 2025 GSHP Spring Meeting on Saturday, March 22, 2025. The top 5 student, resident, and practitioner abstracts will be selected for live poster judging at the GSHP Spring Meeting on Saturday, March 22, 2025. There will be three categories recognized: 1) Best Pharmacy Student Poster; 2) Best Pharmacy Resident Poster; 3) Best Pharmacy Practitioner Poster; based on the credentials of the primary (first) author. One student, one resident, and one practitioner poster will each win an award based on the highest combined abstract and poster scores. Winners will each receive a plaque and a cash prize.
Each abstract submission must be submitted using the provided link and contain the following:
- Author information (include full name, professional credentials, institutional affiliation (i.e., health care organization or college name), and email address for corresponding author/presenter).
- Brief descriptive title (use sentence case).
- Abstract body including:
-
- Purpose (max 100 words)
- Methods (max 225 words)
- Results (max 200 words)
- Conclusions (max 100 words)
- Do not include tables, graphs, or illustrations in abstract. Spell out all pharmaceutical acronyms.
- Specify a submission type (student vs resident vs practitioner), which should be based on primary author’s credentials.
- Specify a primary submission category.
- Primary author must be an active GSHP member.
This year, the GSHP Education Committee will also be accepting case report abstracts and posters at the 2025 GSHP Spring Poster Session. A case report describes an unusual patient-specific case that was not part of a study, and the findings are of interest to clinical pharmacists. Case reports do not need the headings of Purpose, Methods, Results, or Conclusions. A case report abstract will have a max of 625 words. A case report submission is not eligible for judging or finalist status at the GSHP Spring Poster Session. Accepted case reports will present in person at the 2025 GSHP Spring Meeting on Saturday, March 22, 2025.
The deadline for submission of abstracts is at 5pm on Friday, February 14, 2025.
