Oral Presentation Guidelines

For questions about poster presentations, please contact [email protected]

Each 80-minunte session is comprised of up to 5 thematically-related presentations and will be moderated by a session chair. For individual abstracts, each presentation should be approximately 12 minutes long to leave adequate time after the presentations for discussion. The format of pre-formed panels will be determined by each panel’s organizer.
