Guidelines for presenters

• All e-posters will be published on the congress webapp for people to view on their own time (prior, during and/or after the congress). Onsite monitors will be available in Istanbul for people to view their e-posters with colleague.
• You are required to upload PDF slides of your poster: limiting the information to 4-5 slides is recommended (not more than 10 slides will be permitted) including the introduction slide where your financial disclosure is required (prepared in pptx but saved in pdf format).
• Slides must be in 16:9 ratio; landscape format.
• A well‐constructed poster is self-explanatory, achieving both coverage and clarity. Less is more. Be clear and concise with slide design and content. Overcrowding a slide makes it difficult to read.
• Animations, sound or videos are not permitted. Charts and figures must be inserted as images.
• The deadline for uploading your e-poster is August 29, 2024. Please note that submitters failing to submit their slides by the deadline may have their e-poster removed from the program.
• As indicated above, the submission of your PDF e-poster is required.

Key Points For All Presenters
(Plenary, Thematic, Workshop, Oral, Mini-Oral, Rapid-Fire, Post-Graduate Course and Satellite Symposium)

• All presenters must check into the Speaker Ready at least 3 hours prior to their session time (Cutoff for modifications is 45 minutes prior to session start) in order to verify their presentation or to upload a revised version to the computer network.
  ATTENTION: If your presentation is scheduled in the morning sessions, you must upload your presentation the previous day.
• The Speaker Ready Room will be networked with the session rooms, which means your presentation will be automatically distributed to your session room once it is uploaded in the Speaker Ready Room.
• Presentations will not be accepted directly in the session rooms for uploading.
• All presentations should be prepared for PowerPoint 2016+ (or newer) on Windows-based PCs in 16x9 (widescreen) format. To download a prepared PowerPoint template with the congress logos, please click here.
• It is recommended that you disclose any financial conflict of interest on your second slide and verbally to the audience (regardless if you have something to disclose or not. If you have nothing to disclose, simply say “I have no conflicts of interest to disclose.”). 
• No logo or name of commercial interest company should be included on your presentation slides
• Try not to use dark background color and make sure all information is readable and visible.
• Use of individual laptop computers is not permitted (presenter view at the podium is available).
• PowerPoint for MAC files should be tested on a PC before attending the event.
• Keynote for MAC or Prezi will not be accepted, it must be exported to PowerPoint.
• VIDEOS: Your videos must be embedded in the presentation (only possible on PowerPoint 2016 or newer). If you have videos that you would like to include that are not embedded, please come to the speaker ready room and our staff will be able to assist you with any video type.
• Please proceed to your session room 5-10 minutes before your session start time in order to introduce yourself to the session moderators and to familiarize yourself with the set-up.
• We are on a tight schedule. Please make sure to adhere to your allotted speaking time!

Rapid-Fire Presentations

• You only have 3 minutes for your presentation. Therefore, we suggest you consider this three-minute presentation as a summary of your research. Use material that will capture the audience’s interest, provide disclosure, introduce the research, provide an overview of the main question, problem, or objectives at the heart of your research.
• We would recommend you prepare no more than 5-6 slides (including introduction slide).
• The moderators will introduce you and therefore, you do not need to start the presentation by introducing yourself.

Before you depart

Backup: Please bring a copy of your presentation along with you when you depart. Copy your PowerPoint and all movies to a folder on a USB flash drive. PowerPoint 2016 will embed movies by default, however you should still bring the videos just in case. All prior versions of PowerPoint will not embed the movies. They must all be placed in the same folder as your PowerPoint. It is a good practice to keep a second copy of your presentation and your movies in your luggage.
