POSTER GUIDELINES

We encourage the participants to strictly follow these guidelines to help the Local Committee to better organize the conference.

Poster presentations are organized in one poster session per day scheduled on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 17 to 18 h. Posters can be viewed at any time during the day, especially during the coffee breaks (morning: 10:30-11 h, and afternoon: 15:30-16 h).

Each day a Daily Poster Program will be exposed in the poster area to inform the authors and other participants where to place/find the posters.

Display time

The general display time is 8-18 h.

 Installation time

Authors are kindly asked to install their posters early in the morning (8-8:30 h) in order to enable the conference participants to view their posters at any time during the day.

Assistants will be present in the poster area to help the authors installing their poster.

Removing time

Authors are asked to take down their posters between 18 and 18:30 h. After this time, the remaining posters will be removed by the staff and stored until the end of the conference.

Attendance time

The authors attendance time, i.e. the time when the authors must be present at their board-number for presentation, is 17-18 h.

Oral summary of poster

Authors of poster should be prepared to provide a summary of their poster presentation (1–2 slides) during the corresponding oral session, in case a gap should occur in the time schedule or in case the convener has foreseen the presentation of poster summaries during the oral session.

Poster size

Poster dimensions: A0 portrait format (width x height = 841 x 1189 mm; 33.1 x 46.8 in). Please note that posters will be located next to each other, therefore if you print a poster in landscape format it will overlap and disturb your neighbour’s poster. We kindly ask you to respect this.

Double sided tape for attaching the poster to the poster board will be available at the facility desk in the respective poster area. The presenters must print their poster by themselves.

No printing service will be available on site (and it will be very difficult to find one place in the town).
