The jury, consisting of prof. dr. Joline Beulens of the Amsterdam UMC, prof. dr. Patrick Bossuyt of the Amsterdam UMC and dr.

The jury judged the poster to be the best because it was a creative way of using this medium to present the content of the work concisely and in a fun way. In addition, the topic addresses an essential aspect of epidemiology, namely how to deal with and correct for measurement error.
