- 30 Second Introduction: During the [ TBA ] session on [ Date: TBA ], you will have exactly 30 seconds to entice people to stop by your poster during the Poster Session. You will not have time to "introduce" your poster, so emphasize the major points—emphasize the reason(s) conference participants should be interested in your work! We will have a very loud (but friendly) time-keeper (human or mechanical) to move the agenda on to the next poster introduction when your 30 seconds are finished.
- Introduction Sequence: We ask that you meet at the entrance to the Plenary Session Room (TBA) to line up for your poster introductions in the same order you are listed in «[ Program: TBA ]».

- Poster Preparation:
Each poster presenter will be able to display a rectangular poster of the maximum dimension of ISO A0 format: 840mm wide by 1180mm tall (33in wide by 46in tall). For room location, please ask at the registration desk.
- Please prepare all materials in advance. We will not print posters or copy handouts.
- We will provide double-sided adhesive tape for mounting posters. If you need other materials to attach your poster, please bring these with you.
- Access to electrical outlets will not be available.
- Poster Design Considerations:
- Lettering should be simple, bold, and easily legible from a distance of 122cm (4ft). Lettering for the title should be at least 38mm (1.5in) high. Under the heading, include the names of authors and their affiliations in smaller lettering.
- In the body text, keep the number of words to a minimum: please remember that this is not a paper. Arrange the elements in a logical sequence: introduction or statement of the problem or issue, objectives of the research or project, methodology used (where appropriate), major findings or outcomes, interpretations or significance of findings or outcomes, and conclusions. Use numbers if necessary to ensure that readers can follow the sequence.
- Illustrations and color will enhance the effectiveness of your presentation. Tables, figures, and photographs are encouraged. While you should consider graphic impact, note that simplicity and legibility are more important than artistic embellishments. The background of the poster may be any color, so long as there is a strong light-dark contrast between background and lettering.
