Poster Presentations - Guidelines

Poster Presentations - Guidelines

Posters for presentations are selected through the abstract submission process and are presented during moderated poster walks in dedicated sessions. You will have up to 3 minutes to present your poster. Posters from these sessions can be also viewed by delegates at any time during lunch and tea-times at the various poster stations.
