Poster Guidelines
Each poster session is two hours in length. Authors should be available during that time to answer questions, expand on the material and take part in discussions. The following guidelines have been adopted.
- Poster size is 4' x 4'. There will be two posters per side of the 4' x 8' board. Larger posters may not overlap others. Failure to extend courtesy to other presenters may result in removal of a poster.
- Abstracts scheduled for poster session presentation will be grouped by topic. Poster sessions will be held: Sunday, August 1 and Monday, August 2. You will be notified of your session and time via email. Also check the meeting program onsite.
- Posters should be mounted on assigned boards. Locate your poster number in the meeting program. Your poster number will be posted on your board prior to setup. Poster pins will be available at the registration desk.
- Availability of hand-out materials and photocopies of the abstract are helpful.
- Type should be easily legible at a distance of several feet. Please do not write, draw or paste on the poster boards.
