POSTER GUIDELINES


Posters will be available to view online two weeks prior to the conference (as early as June 8, 2021) and will be judged by a committee during the week of June 8. Top scoring posters will be awarded an oral presentation spot during the virtual conference. Posters will continue to be available for viewing through Thursday, September 30, 2021. Each poster will have their own discussion forum for participants to ask questions and provide comments on your poster.

Please review the conference guidelines that apply to all presenters. All presenters are responsible for following these guidelines. 

Presenters should upload a .pdf poster. You may also upload a pre-recorded 2-3 minute video presentation of your poster (optional).

Important Requirements for .pdf Posters:

  1. Limit of 5 MB for .pdf
