Conference Information for Poster Presenters

Virtual Conference Information for Poster Presenters

Poster presenters will be sharing their research over PowerPoint, uploaded to Slideshare. Your “Poster” will need to be broken down into a Power Point slide deck, as most participants will not have a monitor large enough to accommodate the traditional poster format. Poster presenters will engage with conference participants through asynchronous discussion boards through the conference Whova app. If poster presenters would like to engage with participants live, you can request for “office hours” (subject to availability) through [email protected] to create a live session during the conference period.

Requirements for All Presenters: PowerPoint 2016 or better, Slideshare account, and active 2020 IASNR membership.
 

How-to guide (For Reference Only): Logging into Slideshare to upload your slides, and then share your link for the conference
