Instructions for moderators of short oral poster sessions

Instructions for moderators of short oral poster sessions

Please refer to the Congress Mobile App and go to the poster tab on the homepage to see the presentations in your session.

Short Oral Poster Sessions will be scheduled during all coffee and lunch breaks. Poster presentations will be given at a large electronic screen, all posters will be electronic. Each session will take place at a station.

All participants are invited to the Poster Area at the Exhibition Hall to hear the short presentations and to ask questions. Please note that there are a number of parallel sessions in each time slot, consisting of a number of posters. Each session will be guided by a chairperson.

Please note:

  • Please arrive to the Poster Area 10 minutes before the session starts so you can get familiar with the way the session will work. Please make sure you check the actual number of posters you have to discuss which might give you more or less time for the single presentations.
  • Each presenter will have 3 minutes to present his/her poster plus 2 minutes for discussion – total 5 minutes maximum.
  • If the session is full to the maximum end time, please do not allow speakers to exceed their time and ensure each speaker is able to start on time. Please try to formulate at least one question for each speaker yourself and ask it if there are no others to ensure each speaker (if they leave time) gets at least one question.
