Authors in Attendance Time(s)
The "Authors in Attendance Time(s)" is (are) the time(s) when the respective authors of a poster session must be present at their display for presentation. The "Authors in Attendance Time(s)" of each poster session is/are given in the programme.
Poster Preparation
Place the title of your paper prominently at the top of the poster board to allow viewers to identify your paper easily. Indicate the title and the author(s) names of your paper. Highlight the author's name and address information, in case the viewer is interested in contacting him/her for more information.
Prepare all diagrams or charts neatly and legibly beforehand, in a size sufficient to be read at a distance of 1.5-2.0 metres. The type should be at least 2.5 cm high. Use creativity by using different font sizes and styles, perhaps even colour and double-space all text. Use different colours or textures for each line or bars contained in your graph or chart.
Organize the paper on the posterboard so that it is clear, orderly, and self explanatory. You have complete freedom. The presentation must cover the same material as the abstract. Label different elements as 1, 2, 3, or A, B, C. This will make it easier for a viewer to follow your display.
Include the background of your research, followed by results and conclusions. A successful poster presentation depends on how well you convey the information to an interested audience.
Oral Summaries of Posters
Authors of poster papers should be prepared to provide ad hoc a summary of their poster presentation during their oral sessions in case a gap should occur in the time schedule and no stand by paper should be available to fill in. In other cases the convener may have foreseen the presentation of poster summaries during the oral session. Please, check the programme and contact the "Guidelines for Oral Presentations".
