Poster preparation
The ORCA concept makes that you as researcher can learn more about your own study during the congress. The poster component is one of the ways to excite congress attendees to think about your study with you. Please be aware that an appealing poster will attract more viewers and promotes discussion. The poster viewing and presenter discussion can help you get much more out of your study than you could have done by yourself. On the other hand, you can help other researchers by thinking critically about their posters by asking them questions yourself.

So make your poster attractive, by keeping in mind:

• Everybody can read your abstract in the app easily (so no need for putting a complete abstract on your poster)
• Graphics can help you to get the most out of your presentation
• The mandatory size for your poster is A0 (84.1cm x 118.9cm) in portrait format. Larger sizes or landscape format will not fit.

Printing service
To make your visit to the conference easier and more comfortable, we have a poster printing service included in the registration. Please make sure to upload your poster as a PDF file (5MB maximum) by Friday 2 June 2023 13:00 CET. Filename abstract number_Presenter full name.pdf. The abstract number can be found in the overview of poster sessions. Please be aware that missing the deadline implies that your are responsible for printing of your poster yourself.

Poster viewing
