Warm-up
party/poster previews (Fred Farr Forum) and preparation of audio-visual (Chapel)
The following equipment will be provided in all sessions: an LCD projector, laser pointer and a microphone. Speakers should load their talks at Chapel in the evening preceding the presentations. There will be a limited time for last-minute testing (30 minutes before the morning session and during breaks). Due to time constraints, all 10-minute talks should be limited to communication of your specific results only. Please, leave 2-3 minutes from your allowed time for discussion. The projected discussion time for 15-minute presentations is 3-4 minutes, and for 25-minute presentations it is 4-5 minutes. The opening speaker for each session is the chairman of that session. |
