Presentation guidelines

 

Please find the guidelines for your presentation type below (mainly for authors with accepted abstracts):

 

Oral presentation 

10 minutes presentation and 5 minutes for questions and discussion (total 15 minutes) in the main hall.

Format of the file presented: power point (ppt) - no slide number limit, but your presentation should not exceed 10 minutes so approximately 10 slides!

 

Poster pitch & board

2 minutes presentation in the main hall. Followed by 40 minutes for questions and discussion next to your poster board in reception hall (after all the ~10 pitches in the given Poster pitch session). 

Format of the file presented: power point (ppt) - maximum of 3 slides & printed poster, portrait oriented, maximum dimension A0.

 

Please note: the Poster Pitch and Boards are a new format that we are trying out this year. The goal is to make the poster sessions more interactive.

From reactions we think the new format could use some explanation. So, if your abstract was selected for a Poster Pitch & Board please carefully read the following clarification of the guidelines. 

You will have to prepare two things:

1. A short 2 minute PowerPoint presentation with a maximum of 3 slides. This Pitch is intended to advertice your study/abstract. Not to cover all the details. It should be more of an "elevator" pitch stating the most interesting aspects and a hint of the main results.
2. A printed poster, portrait oriented, maximum dimension A0. This poster will be displayed on a poster board. You will be expected to stand next to it and discus your study (poster) with interested other participants.

The Poster Pitch & Board sessions will start with all the pitches in the main hall and after that will move to the poster boards. 

We hope this clarifies the new format and what you need to prepare.
