INSTRUCTIONS FOR POSTER DISCUSSION PRESENTATION
The Poster Discussion Session is running for 90 minutes in total. The abstract presenters will have the opportunity to summarise their findings in three to five minutes and may show ONE or TWO power point slides to illustrate their findings.
The chairpersons may coordinate the discussion in any order or structure, depending of what may be considered to be natural for that session and the posters presented. There will be 12-15 short presentations in each session.
In addition, all presenters are asked to prepare a poster which will be displayed in the Poster Exhibition in Delvaux Foyer throughout the whole congress. You may also prepare handouts of your poster in A4 format for distribution during the poster discussion session.
All posters should be mounted until 4 November 12:00a.m. All posters have to be removed until 6 November 16:00 latest.
Poster material
The maximum size of your poster should be 85 cm (width) x 120 cm (height), portrait style. The poster board is made of laminated panel. Your abstract number will be displayed with large printed figures in a corner of the poster board. Your poster material should be attached on the surface by double-sided tape, which will be provided at the Poster Exhibition Area.
Text layout
Give a short and comprehensive review of the basic items of your study. Dividing your text into several but clearly delineated paragraphs and sections such as Introduction or Aim of study, Materials and methods, Result and Conclusions can do this. Remember that it is easy to start reading a paragraph of six lines and that most people avoid one with 30. Your poster text should be enlarged so that it can be read at a distance of about one meter.
Illustration layout
Drawings, diagrams and photos are extremely helpful and often necessary to display results and conclusions. Make sure that your illustrations are easy to understand; do not overload any chart or drawing with information
AUDIO VISUAL INFORMATION
Only PowerPoint projection using computers provided by the congress may be used in the session halls.
