Oral Presentations

Presenters will have 15 minutes to speak, with an additional 5 minutes allocated for Q&A. Oral presentations will be scheduled on Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday, grouped into thematic sessions.

Scientific Posters

Posters can be A1 (portrait or landscape) or A0 (portrait only), can be paper, plastic or fabric, and will be assessed by members of the Scientific Committee during the dedicated Poster Presentation sessions. Poster Presentations will take place across Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, with each presenter allocated a time on one of these days only. We cannot guarantee that requests to present on specific days will be accommodated.

The University’s Print & Creative Services can facilitate the printing of posters if needed. Using the myPrint Portal, you can order both A1 and A0 posters, on premium paper, polypropylene film, or fabric, and collect the printed poster on campus.
