Poster presentations

Poster sessions will last 60 minutes; we expect you to stand close to your poster during that time to answer questions and discuss your research with the circulating crowd. Please prepare your poster to a maximum size of 4 feet wide by 3 feet high (121.9cm by 91.4cm / 48in by 36in). Consider bringing a few handouts for some of your keener visitors (e.g., a letter-sized version of your poster, a list of references, or a card with your contact information).

Oral presentations

Oral presentations will be grouped into multiple symposia based on common topics. Please prepare a 10-minute presentation and expect a 3- to 5-minute informal question period. We recommend that you use our own classroom podiums for your presentation, and as such ask that you prepare the final version of your presentation in a MS PowerPoint format. Please arrive 5 to 10 minutes before the scheduled start of your symposium session, identify yourself to one of our volunteers and have your presentation file ready on a USB flash drive. You can also bring your own laptop for the presentation (e.g., if you want to use a Mac), but you are responsible for providing the appropriate cables and adaptors.
