For+presenters


 * For presenters **

Individual paper presentations consist of a 20 minute presentation followed by 5 minutes of questions and discussion. The time will be managed by a session chair (see below for session chairing information).
 * Individual Paper Presentations **

All individual paper presentation rooms are equipped with a plasma display connected with a laptop computer (PC). Presenters will be able to bring your own laptop or to use the computer provided in the room. Some cabling is provided; however, MAC users are responsible for their own adaptors.

Posters are for one-on-one discussion of your research. As such, posters should be designed as a springboard for engaging passersby, orienting them to the aims of the project and presenting data visually. You may also provide attendees with handouts. Posters scheduled to be presented should be a maximum size of 840 x 1190 mm (A0 size). Posters can be smaller than that size, but not larger. The bulletin boards, chairs, and small desks will be provided, but please bring pins for attaching your poster . Please display your poster on a bulletin board set up in room 735 during the break (3:15-3:30pm) before your presentation time (3:30-4:15pm). The following links may be useful for first-time poster presenters. @http://library.buffalo.edu/asl/guides/bio/posters.html <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">@http://www.personal.psu.edu/drs18/postershow/
