POSTER PRESENTATION
The
objective of the poster session is to give presenters an improved opportunity
to share their work and gain feedback on a one to one basis from conference
participants. Our goal is to provide a high quality poster session that is
comparable to oral sessions in terms of presentation quality. Poster Session A: Wednesday,
19th August from 12:35 - 14:00 Hrs Poster Session B: Thursday,
20th August from 12:35 - 14:00 Hrs During
the first two days of DrugInfoMeet, the registered participants are
encouraged to present posters on relevant research related to the conference
theme. The posters will be displayed during the lunch breaks of the first two
days, 19th and 20th August 2009. Are you
interested? The conference secretariat would then like to receive a summary of a maximum of 400 words
before August 5, 2009. Upon receipt, you will receive a
confirmation of acceptance or rejection of your poster summary no later than August
10, 2009. Acceptance of the summary for a poster has no effect whatsoever
upon your registration fee for the conference and/or the workshop. Summary:
The summary will preferably include the following: Title, name and organisation of key researcher, names and
organisations of co-researchers, premise/background, objective, method,
result/findings, discussion and conclusion. References to literature, tables
and other appendices are not required. To guard impartiality/neutrality the conference
secretariat would appreciate it if you mention any conflicting interests. Sending in your summary:
Please send your summary in a word document to denovodrugs@gmail.com and manojtk@iiitmk.ac.in.
Poster sessions in general: · A
poster session is a presentation where materials such as graphs, charts,
maps, photographs, and/or tables are posted on a display board along with
brief textual summaries of the presenter’s work. · Each poster
display includes a title(s) and name(s) of the presenter(s) in large,
easy-to-read letters. The title may be composed of CAPITAL letters that are 3
cm high. · A
well-constructed poster is self-explanatory, and a successful poster
presentation achieves both coverage and clarity. Extensive, imaginative use
of captioned illustrations, photos, graphs, or other types of visually
appealing material is an extremely effective mode of communication in a
poster presentation. Remember to label each section of your presentation
clearly. · People
attending poster sessions generally move freely from poster to poster, and
there is not enough time for people to read excessive text. Text may be
limited to four or five pages of double-spaced, 16 to 20 point text. This allows
lettering to be read from distances of 1m to 2m. |
Poster Presentation Guidelines If your summary is accepted for a
poster presentation, we request you take the following into account. The
summary of your poster will be used in the program schedule / handout,
without any editing on our behalf. The contributor will be present during the
poster presentation (lunch break) and available for discussion and to answer
any questions. Please note the following guidelines while
preparing your posters: ·
Presenters
will have an assigned board at the conference, and must set up the posters
right after the conference onsite-registration / arrival in the morning on
the first day of the conference, 19th August 2009. ·
Each
confirmed poster/presenter will be provided with a 90 cm x 120 cm display
board (so that you may use 85 cm x 100 cm poster or smaller) and pushpins. Do
not write or paint directly on the display boards. AV equipment and
electricity are not provided. No other
materials or facilities for poster preparation will be provided at the
conference venue. ·
Your
poster should be labeled and laid out in a clear and logical format to
effectively communicate the results of your work (preferably NOT as a series of
A4 pages with 12 point text!). Posters will typically be viewed at distances
of 1m to 2m, hence, the text and graphics used should be able to be read at
these distances (we recommend text font sizes of 16 point or larger). ·
Posters
should be composed of a light weight durable material; use of a matte finish
laminate is also encouraged to improve readability. We encourage poster
authors to have their work critiqued by colleagues prior to the final
printing to ensure you have an optimal layout and easily understood text. ·
The
header on the poster should contain the title, author’s names and
affiliations. Please provide an abstract as a part of the poster and it is
important to underline the presenting author. ·
Use
the minimum amount of text possible and describe only what is essential to
make your point clear. Be concise, but organize in a logical manner like
introduction, experimental methods, results and conclusion. Use large BOLD
lettering for readability, but please avoid fancy fonts. ·
Poster
presenters will be responsible for putting up and removing their posters and
the conference organizers are not responsible for any posters not collected
after the take-down time. ·
The
poster sessions coincide with the lunch break on both days. Lunch is served
as a buffet, so we encourage presenters to get their lunch quickly and bring
it to their poster display. Presenters are expected to make themselves
available at all times during the poster session. ·
You
may leave your presentation up after the poster session, but please take
everything with you when you leave for the day. |
