Regular oral presentations, as well as dissertation oral presentations, are generally arranged by topic. For a regular oral presentation, allow 7 minutes for the talk. For a dissertation oral presentation, allow 12 minutes for the talk. All oral sessions will be fully hybrid. If you choose to participate remotely, you will be presenting live using Zoom and mixed in with presenters who are attending in person.
Regular, History, Education, and Workforce Posters allow far more time and flexibility than the corresponding oral presentations. Posters are arranged by topic. In person Posters will be presented in the conference hall during In-Person Poster sessions. Fully Virtual Online Posters will only be presented at designated times in the program.
In-person poster presenters will need to print their poster for hanging in the conference venue during their allocated time. Virtual presenters will need to submit posters as pdfs but they can be created in any program of the authors choosing. The platform for virtual poster sessions is yet to be decided, but virtual/hybrid poster sessions will be conducted throughout the week and also discussions and commenting can occur on Slack for all poster presenters (both in person and virtual attendees).
Lightning Poster Talks
Lightning Poster Talks are 1-minute presentations of posters, which will be streamed over Zoom so that virtual and in-person attendees can participate both as presenters and the audience. These will take place during the designated poster session times.
Types of Sessions
Oral and Poster
Slack: All presenters are expected to participate in the asynchronous discussion via slack.
