SPEAKERS’ INSTRUCTIONS 
There are two 120 minute and one 90 minute parallel sessions on the program.  
In the 120 minute sessions there will be three rooms dedicated to Oral Contributed papers, one (the Ballroom) to Invited Panels and one for the Poster sessions.  
In the 90 minute session there will be four breakaway rooms in use for Oral Contributed paper.

 

CONTRIBUTED ORAL PRESENTATION

• Each presenter has a total of 20 minutes, so the more time the presenter takes, the less time will be available for the Question and Answer session. Please aim to talk for no longer than 15 minutes to leave enough time for discussion.

• A good guide for PowerPoint slides: aim to talk for 2 minutes per slide and include no more than 4 points on each slide

• The chairperson of each session will be the presenter of the last paper in that session, so s/he will keep you to your time very strictly!

 

CONTRIBUTED VISUAL PRESENTATIONS

• In each 2 hour session up to 11 posters will be presented, i.e. you will have at least 10 minutes for your presentation. The Chair of the session will know how many presentations there are in that session, and will limit the time for each accordingly. For example, if there are only 10 papers, each presentation can take 12 minutes.

• In each case this time includes the Question and Answer session.

• There will be a data projector and a screen in the room. The format will be a presentation of no more than three slides, followed by a discussion session.

• The slides can be conventional, as with a (short) PowerPoint presentation, or you can design a single slide in the form of a poster if you so wish.

• PHYSICAL POSTERS CANNOT BE ACCOMMODATED.

• The chairperson of each session will be the presenter of the last poster in that session, so s/he will keep you to your time very strictly!
