The most accomplished poster presentations at the ETH Nanoparticles Conference (NPC) are rewarded with a Best Poster Award.

The three best poster presentations are recognized by award certificates and prize money. In 2016 the best-rated poster received SFr 600 (approx. $630 US), the second SFr 400 (approx. $420) and the third SFr 200 (approx. $210).
