Poster Information

Instructions:

1. The size of the poster is to be a maximum of 4' x 4', including the banner. Note that this is smaller than in years past. It is imperative that you do not exceed the 4' x 4' size! As a courtesy to your neighbor, we suggest that you measure your poster before you bring it to the conference: posters bigger than 4' x 4' will encroach into your neighbor's space!
2.  Please remember that, as is often the case, less is more. Use a font size that is readily readable from a distance of 4' to 6': include only the most important details concerning background, your hypothesis, methods, results, and conclusions. Try to utilize one or two figures to highlight results: figures are easier and quicker to follow than several pages of text or tables.
3. Colleagues visiting your poster will probably appreciate a handout that is more detailed than your poster. Please try to bring 50-100 handouts.
4. Poster presenters are asked to remain close to their posters throughout the poster session.
5.  Posters are to be mounted with pushpins. Please bring an adequate supply of pushpins for your poster, as pins will not be available on site.
6. Please remember to mount your poster in the numbered space that has been reserved for you. Posters should be put up shortly prior to the scheduled time for the poster session, and removed at the end of the session.
