Poster Session

Call for Posters

The ICRG showcases new research on gambling and gambling disorder during a poster session held at the ICRG Conference. Because this year’s Conference on Gambling and Addiction will be virtual, the poster session will be held online, on Twitter. This event is an opportunity for investigators to report on their empirical research and converse with the public about their findings.
