I am an MS3 in a dual degree program (so technically an MS6). I have basic science abstracts from SfN 2006, 2007, and 2008, but I did not go this year. I have three basic science manuscripts from my PhD work (two are in revision) and one from undergrad. The last part of my dissertation hasn't been presented at a national meeting before. Would it benefit my application to present a basic science poster at the 2010 AAN meeting. I would like to get the experience the AAN meeting, but it is a big expense if I don't get any scholarship or department money. Bottom line, if it won't really improve my overall application, I think I'll sit this one out and save my traveling money for the interview season. However, if presenting basic science findings at AAN is much more appealing to neurology residencies than presenting at SfN X 3, then I'll be happy to do it. Any suggestions?
