Symposium: Friday, April 3 at 11:00 – 1:00pm
Participants will be expected to arrive at 10:30 to set up their posters.
All presentations must be in poster format.
To accommodate all posters, they MUST be printed in the “ANSI E” format (34” W x
44” H, portrait orientation). This format allows two posters to fit on each provided
easel.
If you already have a poster printed in landscape for a previous conference, you
can still present using that poster. Please indicate that on the registration
form.
The provided template is formatted to the correct size along with suggested font sizes to ensure that your poster can be read from 3-4 feet away.
