Abstract Submission & Presentation Guidelines
Presentation Guidelines
Podium presentations
We ask that each podium presenter pre-record a video presentation and upload it as a private Youtube video. In total, your presentation will be 10 minutes (7 min talk, 3 min Q&A). Your 10-min presentation will be played as a “simulated live” presentation. This means that we will broadcast your pre-recorded presentation at the pre-set time described in the program as if it is live, freeing you from the stress of a live presentation and the potential technical issues that could arise. Following your talk there will be 3 minutes dedicated to Q&A’s. The Q&A will be live through Zoom. Questions will be facilitated by the moderators, but the presenter needs to be virtually present and available to answer questions.

Best practices and tips for making a video
Promising Student Award presentations
Please follow the format and instructions for podium presentations above. Note that you will have a 15-minute presentation rather than a 10-minute presentation. This will consist of a 10-minute presentation and 5-minutes for Q&A. Your talk should be pre-recorded and your Q&A session will be live.
Poster presentations
We are excited to share with you that the poster presentation will consist of an uploaded image (.png or .jpeg) of your poster, the ability to present with video and audio by sharing your screen, and a live chat function. We ask you to create a horizontal image in either jpg. or .png format that will fit and pin into your poster booth: 800 (width) x 450 (height). The virtual format will provide you with increased exposure and feedback opportunities on your research. Indeed, the poster hall will not only be featured during a specific poster session but will also be accessible for the duration of the Conference, and attendees will be able to engage with your poster over that entire time.
