Printing and Mounting

  • Posters must be printed and brought onsite; they should not be sent to the Committee or organisers in advance.
  • Canvas or heavy materials are not recommended, as they may not adhere well to the boards.
  • Pins are not permitted.
    Only Velcro strips (provided onsite) may be used to attach posters to the designated boards.
  • Posters should be mounted on your assigned board before 09:30 on Thursday, 22 January.
  • Posters must be removed after the end of the afternoon session on Friday.
    The organisers cannot take responsibility for posters left behind.

Poster Presentation Expectations

  • At least one author is encouraged to be present at the poster during designated poster sessions to discuss the work with attendees.

Suggested Poster Layout and Design

  • Posters should be legible from a distance of approximately 1.5 metres.
  • A single-panel printed poster (one sheet) is recommended.
  • Include at the top of the poster:
    • Title
    • Authors’ names
    • Affiliations
  • Keep text concise and use bullet points where possible.
  • Poster number labels will be provided and placed above your poster; no space needs to be reserved in your layout.
  • We recommend including:
    • An Introduction section
    • A Summary / Conclusions section
  • Use double-spaced text for improved readability.
  • Consider adding contact details or a QR code linking to additional information or publications.
