POSTER VIEWING SESSION
The very popular poster viewing session is as always part of the program. Posters are accepted either with technical (e.g., tips and tricks) or scientific content (must contain data). Please note that commercial posters without data and/or technical information will be declined. 

The deadline for submission of poster abstracts is 29 April 2024. As a tradition, the best poster will be elected during the MRF meeting and the presenter or a co-author will win one free registration for a subsequent MRF conference.

Read the poster guidelines at www.minipigresearchforum.org incl. format requirements.

BREAKOUT SESSIONS
Attendees can choose between two different breakout sessions, one with a scientific perspective and the other with a more technical/practical approach (continuing education).
