Guidelines for Poster Presenters
Last updated 24 June 2008

 Before the Session   |   During Your session
 
A poster presentation combines a visual display on a poster board of the highlights of research with a question-and-answer opportunity.


Before the Session:
  • Schedule.   The ISMRM poster hall will be open for mounting of posters on Friday, 11 May, from 12.00 to 17.00 and on Saturday, 12 May, from 07.00 to 13.00.  Your poster must be in place by 13.00 on Saturday.  It should remain mounted and available for viewing until 12.30 on Wednesday, 16 July.  It must be removed by 13.00 on Friday.
  • Measurements.   Each presenter is assigned a space which measures 1.2m/4ft high and 1.2m/4ft wide.  Posters exceeding these measurements and extending into areas reserved for other posters will be removed.
  • Mounting.   Posters should be designed and constructed so they can be attached to the poster board with pushpins which will be found attached to the poster board.  Additional pushpins may be requested at the meeting registration desk.
During Your Session:
  • One quarter of the posters will be presented during each poster session to reduce crowding and maximize opportunities for discussion.  Check the program book to confirm on which day you will be expected to present your poster.
  • If your program number is an even number you are requested to be at your poster during the first hour of your assigned poster session.  If it is an odd number, you are requested to be at your poster during the second hour of the session.  This alternating presence will allow presenters more opportunities to engage in discussions with their colleagues who are presenting during the same session.   When you register for the meeting, please verify your program number in the program book in case there have been last minute changes.
