Posters
Posters need to be printed and not digital: size: A0 (84,1 x 118,9 cm / 33,1” x 46,8”), portrait format. Use the same title as in the published conference program. Posters will be hung by subject areas so there will be a specific allocation for your poster.
Poster slots. There will be two different time slots for posters, and your poster will be displayed during one of these:
- The first slot Tue 5 May 12.00 to Wed 6 May 11.15; you may put up your poster during the morning on 5 May, between 8.00-12.00, and it is very important that you remove the poster no later than 11.15 (!) the next day for new posters to be put up.
- The second slot Wed 6 May 12:15 to Thu 7 May 13:30; you should put up your poster May 6 between 11:15-12:15 and remove it on May 7 at 13:30.
Please have a look at the digital program to see which slot your poster is allocated in. You will find the number of your poster in the abstract book that you will receive at the end of the week before the conference starts.
Poster sessions and walks. There are three dedicated poster sessions during the conference. Make sure to note which one(s) are scheduled during your slot (the time your poster is up) and stand by your poster at that time. If your poster is selected for presentation at a guided poster walk, a moderator will contact you.
Poster prizes. Evaluation of all posters will be carried out by a special committee and nominations of conference participants. Prizes for best posters will be awarded in five categories:
- doctoral student (first author)
- scientific quality
- practice-based development quality
- novelty
- layout/design
