NVOTA/An Evening of Scholarship

Join us for an Evening of Scholarship

The Evening of Scholarship is a virtual showcase celebrating the research and innovation of students, clinicians, and academics.

Join us on Thursday, December 3, 2026 at 6:30 PM for a fast-paced hour of short presentations that highlight the work shaping our profession.
Each presenter will share their research in a concise 3-minute talk supported by a single slide, followed by 1 minute for questions. With up to 10 presenters, attendees will get a quick tour of fresh ideas, new findings, and meaningful work happening across our community. Outstanding presentations will be recognized with awards across multiple categories.
Whether you are presenting, cheering on a colleague, or simply curious about what’s new in research, we invite you to log in from wherever you are and be inspired.
Who can submit
Open to student, clinician, and academic researchers.
How it works
Present your research as a virtual poster-style presentation:
a short oral presentation supported by one slide.  
Step 1: Download template slide and fill in your information
  • Use the template provided. It has three column sections.
  • Keep it simple: no animations, no video and no embedded audio.
  • Text is limited. This is not a poster, so do not try to fit everything on the slide.
  • Make your graphics meaningful. Every image, chart or icon should support your message.
  • Use Arial for all text. Nothing should be smaller than 12 pt
  • Add a QR code that links to another resource where people can learn more.
  • Practice before the event. You will be muted at 3 minutes.

 

Step 2:  Complete your submission
