The Abstracts and Awards Council oversees the scientific poster sessions and the Research and Practice Awards at the AAPP Annual Meeting each year. The poster sessions provide a unique opportunity for networking, the promotion of scholarly activity, and the dissemination of the latest psychiatric pharmacotherapeutic research findings. The council leads the abstract peer review process and works to continually improve the poster session experience. (Meets: Virtually 2 hours per year and in-person at the Annual Meeting, Time Commitment: ~25 h/y, mostly in Jan/Feb)
