POSTER GUIDELINES


The Metabolomics 2020 Online Poster Gallery is now live! Registered attendees can now use the custom link provided in your Welcome email to begin viewing the Poster Gallery and interacting with your peers!

Posters will be available to view online one week prior to the conference (as early as October 13) and will be judged by a committee during the week of October 19. Top scoring posters will be awarded an oral presentation spot during the virtual conference. Posters will continue to be available for viewing through Friday, October 30, 2020. 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.  Visit “Conference Policies” under the “Program” tab. All presenters are responsible for following these guidelines. 

You may post a .pdf poster, and/or a pre-recorded 2-3 minute video presentation.
