Authors will post their hard copy posters on March 13 at 1:00 PM and must attend the poster showcase which is scheduled for 5:15–6:45 pm on March 13, so that you can discuss your poster content with the conference attendees. We also ask that poster authors be available to discuss poster content during the meals and breaks on March 14, with poster removal after the afternoon break on March 14.

Several authors will be selected to give an oral presentation of their poster during one of the Rapid Fire Poster Sessions scheduled for March 13. Those selected to present will be notified by the end of January.

Poster Details

Below, there is a poster template which can be used for both your printed and e-poster or you are welcome to use another brand, e.g. from your facility. For the conference in Phoenix, please prepare a hard copy of your poster. Poster size is limited to 36 x 24 inches. We also ask that you post an e-poster to the speaker management site in PDF form as we plan to place these on the conference website after the conference concludes.
