MBSJ-EMBO Poster Award

We are pleased to announce the recipients of the MBSJ-EMBO Poster Award 2025.

We received 1,599 entries for the Poster Award at this year's meeting.
Following the on-site judging, 171 of these (11% of all entries) were selected as MBSJ Poster Award 2025 Excellence Award winners.
Furthermore, among those, the 51 entries (3% of all entries) that received particularly high evaluations from the judges are recognized with the MBSJ-EMBO Poster Award 2025.
Congratulations on winning this Award!

We would also like to express our sincere gratitude for the cooperation we received from a large number of professors and experts during the on-site judging process.
Thank you very much for your cooperation with the review.
