Volunteer Opportunity at the RESNA 2013 Conference 

The five finalists of RESNA's Student Scientific Paper Competition have been invited to RESNA 2013, and will present their work in a dedicated session at the conference. We are looking for volunteers to judge the students' presentations and select the winner of the competition. 

The purpose of the competition is to promote high quality scientific and engineering research in the fields of rehabilitation engineering and assistive technology. The competition encourages students from a variety of disciplines to address contemporary issues in these fields through research. The competition focuses on the rigorous use of research methods and is based on the scientific and engineering merit of the research. The competition is sponsored by the Paralyzed Veterans of America. 

Judges must attend the session, which is Saturday, June 22 from 4pm to 5:15pm, and fill out an evaluation sheet for each of the presentations. If you are interested, please e-mail conference@resna.org.
