Student Research Poster Competition

Sponsor a Student
The ASTC Research Committee is hosting a Student Research Poster Competition at the 2026 Annual Conference. After blind review by the Research Committee, competitive posters will be accepted for presentation and entered into the poster competition.
The poster topic need not be related directly to trial consulting or jury behavior. Although papers on topics such as jury or judge decision making, venue surveys, witness preparation, jury selection, and attorney openings and closings are welcome, we also invite work on other relevant topics with potential application to better understanding of individual and group decision-making in trial settings (e.g., persuasion in small groups, visual communication, implicit bias, hindsight bias, counterfactual reasoning).
Submissions are due May 1, 2026. Competition prize is $500.
Student Conference Sponsorships
We’re inviting community leaders, organizations, and individuals like you to directly invest in the next generation of trial consultants by sponsoring student conference costs. Your support gives students access to expert panels, hands-on workshops, and invaluable networking opportunities.
To maximize support for this year’s students, we encourage contributions by May 1. Contributions received after that date may still support additional students on a rolling basis, if timing allows.

Students who are interested in attending the conference are encouraged to apply to be considered for potential sponsorship support.
Applications are due by May 1.
Submissions will be reviewed, and applicants will be notified of their status by May 8 to allow time for travel planning. Additional awards may be made on a rolling basis if further sponsorship becomes available.
