Oral presentations
Oral presentations, except for invited and keynote speakers, are limited to 15 minutes. Presenting authors are requested to plan their presentations for a maximum of 10 minutes in order to allow sufficient time (i.e. 5 minutes) for discussion. These presentations are based on the paper that is submitted.
All presentations must be in English, the official language of the Conference.
Only PowerPoint presentations are accepted. No slide or overhead projectors will be available in the conference rooms and it will not be possible to use personal laptops.
We recommend using ".gif" and ".jpg" formats for images. Other types of extension will be accepted, provided that they are recognised by PowerPoint.
Use large fonts (the minimum font size should be 18 points). If you cannot fit all your subjects on a slide without moving to a smaller font, break the points up onto separate slides.
The PowerPoint files with the presentations must be delivered to the organising committee during the Registration at the first day of the meeting. The use of CD-Rom’s, USB pens or memory sticks is advisable.
Poster presentations
Abstracts of posters will be published in the conference book. Also a pdf of the poster can be published. All posters must be written in English.
Posters will be on display throughout the Congress and will be discussed during specific poster sessions. At least one of the authors is requested to be at the poster during the assigned discussion timing.
Format: Portrait; Maximum size: 85 x 120 cm. Display boards and fixing materials will be provided.
