Posters
Posters should be maximum of A0 in size and A1 is preferred. The programme will include a poster presentation slot during which you will have the opportunity to talk about your poster and answer questions. Please prepare a short 5 minute presentation about your poster.
​
TIP: While your audience will need to know the study background and research questions, do not use up too much of your poster on these. Decide what the main focus of your poster will be and ensure that you provide sufficient detail about this issue. Make sure that your name is clearly identified on the poster.
Each presentation will be 15 minutes with 10 minutes question time. If you are going to use PowerPoint or some other presentation software, you should have no more than 5 slides with minimum text on each. While your audience will need to know the study background and research questions, do not use up too much of your time on these (unless they are the focus of the presentation). Decide what the main focus of your presentation will be and get to this focus as quickly as possible.
