Poster Presentation 

The attendees will not be required to submit abstracts exclusively for Poster presentation. The abstracts received will be evaluated by the Scientific Committee based on the content, relevance and significance. The selected abstracts will be considered for oral presentation or poster presentation in any of the tracks as decided by the scientific committee. In case your abstract is considered under Poster, you will be notified.

To participate in the poster display, all presenters must be registered in advance.

Poster Presentation Guidelines

Venue: The poster display will be at the venue of the conference.

Time: You are advised to set up your poster half hour before the conference begins. You will be allotted specific time [will inform you after we receive your confirmation] when you are required to be at the poster display area to discuss your presentation.

No commercial activities or any advertising may be displayed on the posters. Non-compliance with this rule will result in the poster being removed.

Poster Display Equipment

A large display board will be provided for your poster display.

Double-sided tape/ pins will be provided to all poster presenters at the conference. On-site staff will be available to assist you.

You can please collect your board number from the conference venue. Please use the board with the same number.

Dimension of the poster

The size of the poster should be: 5 ft x 3 ft (Portrait)

Content

The title should be the same as the title submitted with the abstract and appear in boldface at the top.

Posters should stimulate discussion, not give a long presentation. Therefore, keep text to a minimum, emphasize graphics, and make sure every item in your poster is necessary.

Computers: You may not use a computer as part of your display or videos.

Pointers

Poster body text must be readable from 2 meters (with possible exception of references) and the title from 4-5 meters

Avoid capital letters except at the beginning of sentences and proper nouns

Use a black sans serif font like Verdana etc

Use a bolder, larger typeface for the main titles and headings. It can be effective to use a different typeface for headings and subheadings

Each poster must include text in a large enough font (~20 point font) to be read easily by attendees from a distance of 4 to 5 feet or more. Lettering on illustrations should be large and legible. Photographs should be a minimum of 5 x 7 inches. Material should be displayed in logical sequence (introduction, objectives, methodology, findings, conclusion).
