🔴ORAL PRESENTATION

Create your slide presentation

The most successful presentation slides are graphically rich presentations of your research that both highlight the main points and fill in the most interesting details. Your presentation slides should include:

• All slides formatted for easy understanding of the information on each slide

• Explanations for each graph, picture, and table

• Media file(s) embedded in your primary presentation as a slide

• No automatic slide advance timings

Fonts

The session computer will have the standard font sets for Windows 10, as well as PowerPoint. Please refrain from using custom or purchased fonts, as these will not be available and may impact how your presentation looks.

Aspect ratio

The meeting will be utilizing 16:9 aspect ratio projectors (widescreen) in all rooms. To utilize the full screen, you should create your presentation in “widescreen” format. The standard 4:3 format will work but it will not fill the entire screen when in presentation mode.

Media files

As a precaution, bring all media files with to the meeting, even though you’ve embedded them in your slide presentation. While we can help with many aspects of your talk on-site, we can’t “fix” a missing media file.

Presentation file types

There are no file size restrictions. The session computer will run Windows files natively. The computer has PowerPoint for Windows installed.

In PowerPoint, save your file as a .pptx. Do not use .ppt, .pps, or other formats, as this will affect your file’s ability to open correctly.

Preview and test presentation onsite at Speaker Check-In

• Bring a back-up copy of your presentation file and any media files to your session

• Arrive in the conference room at least 10 minutes prior to the start of your session

• Locate the session chair for your session and check in with them so they know you have arrived

• When it’s time to present, simply walk to the lectern and click on your name

🟡POSTER PRESENTATION

Create and print your poster

The most successful posters are graphically rich presentations of your research that highlight and summarize the main points, with the poster presenter filling in the details in person at the session. The least effective poster format is an enlarged copy of your manuscript.

Your poster should include:

• The paper title and all authors at the top of the poster

• A brief introduction, goals, experimental detail, conclusions, and references; presented in a logical and clear sequence

• Explanations for each graph, picture, and table

Size, fonts, and color

• The maximum poster size is 44” x 44” (112cm x 112cm). 

• Use easily read type. Suggested minimum font sizes:

• Title: 36 point type

• List of authors: 25 point type

• Body copy should be double-spaced text: 15 point type

• Choose your colors to provide strong contrast and avoid pairing red and green elements to assist those with red-green color blindness

• Print a high-resolution copy of your poster to present onsite.

Set up your poster in person

• Bring your high-resolution printed poster with you to the meeting

• Check the individual conference program to find your poster session location and timing

• Set up your printed poster at least 60 minutes before your session start time on the day you are scheduled to present

• Paper numbers will be placed on the poster boards in numerical order

• Find your paper number and put up your printed poster in the designated space

Present your poster in person

• • • Poster Session Duration: 90 minutes (stand by your poster to answer questions)

    • Each poster presenter is responsible for printing their poster and bringing it to the meeting. ICAMM'24 does not print the posters.

    • One person may not present more than two posters in a poster session. If you have multiple posters within the same poster session, please find a presenter for each.

    • Poster presenters are required to stand by the poster during the scheduled duration of the poster session to answer questions from attendees

    • Presenters who have not placed their poster(s) on their assigned board at least 60 minutes prior to the start of the poster session, and attend to it for the duration of the poster session, will be considered a "no show" 

    • Presenters must remove their printed posters immediately after the poster session
