Frequently Asked Questions

We do not have a selection process for posters, so poster spaces are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. Your abstract must be submitted before the registration period closes and your registration fee must be paid by the payment deadline to secure your poster space.

Please note: you will not be given a poster slot if you are selected for and accept an oral presentation.

Yes! 

Please note: If you want to present a poster at all, you must indicate this during registration. If you are not selected for an oral presentation, you will not automatically be added to the poster presenters list. If you are selected for and accept an oral presentation, we will not allocate a spot for your poster.

We aim to notify individuals chosen for an oral presentation within one week after registration closes. We give those individuals another 7 days to accept the slot. Once all oral presentation slots have been filled, we will notify individuals who were not selected for an oral presentation (2-3 weeks after registration closes).

Poster boards are 6 ft (W) x 4 ft (H). We recommend poster dimensions of 3 ft (W) x 4 ft (H). Vertical posters are highly encouraged but not mandatory.
