Guidelines for Presentation Submission Instructions

POSTER PRESENTATION GUIDELINES

The specifications for Poster Presentations are as follows:

• The maximum available area is 95cm wide x 200cm high (portrait).

• It is recommended that the layout of posters should have the following sections: Title, author, and address (at upper edge, across the width of the whole poster)

• Purpose
• Methods
• Results
• Conclusions

• Keep text to a minimum, emphasise graphics, and make sure every item in the poster is necessary.

• Posters must correspond directly with the original poster summary submitted.

• Posters must be written and presented in English, the official language of the conference.

• The use of colour makes the poster more effective and attractive. When choosing a background, remember that neutral or grey colours will be easier on the eyes than a bright colour. In addition, colour photos look best when mounted on grey.

• Materials should be mounted on thin poster paper or lightweight cardboard (do not use heavy cardboard, which may prove difficult to secure to the poster board).

• Poster numbers will be indicated at each panel. Posters will be affixed with double-sided tape and these materials will be provided. No pins or tacks will be allowed.

• Poster presenters should bring the acceptance letter and registration badge to gain access to the poster area for placing the poster, particularly before or after exhibition opening hours.
