Contributed Talks and Posters

CBP welcomes scientists from around the world to share their research via oral or poster presentations.

Oral Presentations

Attendees have the opportunity to give a 15 minute oral presentation followed by 5 minutes for questions. Any attendee - trainees, staff, and principal investigators - can apply to give an oral presentation. If you would like to be considered for an oral presentation, please submit your abstract when registering.

Poster Presentations

All attendees can present one (1) poster. There is no selection process; anyone who wants to present a poster can, including individuals selected for an oral presentation. If you would like to present a poster, please submit your abstract when registering.

Maximum poster dimensions are 3 ft (W) x 4 ft (H). Vertical posters are highly encouraged but not mandatory.

For a 10% discount on poster printing and direct delivery to the symposium, print your poster with UTPoster. Discount code will be provided to poster presenters at a later date.
