YOUNG RESEARCHER AWARD
During the third edition of IConS in 2008, SCARF (India) provided a platform for the young and dynamic researchers early in their career to showcase their abilities to communicate their research endeavours in the field of mental health. This Young Researcher Award (YRA) has been a popular platform for many young researchers to present their research to an International audience of renowned researchers.
IConS- X in 2022 is hosting the YRA. The Submission for the Award has the Written and the Oral Presentation components. The Written submissions will be evaluated to identify the best papers. The shortlisted candidates will be invited to present their work in person at the conference.The oral presentation will be assessed independently by a different set of judges. The judges’ decision will be final and binding.
The YRA includes a Certificate and a Cash award. The YRA will be issued only in the name of the person presenting at the Conference. Hence it is recommended that the person competing for the award makes the presentation. Certificates of participation in the YRA will be issued to other applicants who did the Oral presentations.
