Poster Guidelines

All poster presenters are required to print a physical poster to display in Prague. Additionally, you can upload a virtual poster to the online Poster Gallery as early as June 9. Each virtual poster will have a discussion forum for participants to ask questions and provide comments.

If you are selected for an oral presentation, you will not have a poster presentation. Do not prepare a poster. One presentation per presenter.

Please review the conference policies and code of conduct that apply to all presenters.

Virtual Posters
Virtual posters are optional. Presenters can upload a .pdf poster file. You may also upload a pre-recorded 2-3 minute video presentation of your poster (optional).

Important Requirements for .pdf Posters:

Text and graphics on the poster should be in English.
Limit of 5 MB for .pdf
Orientation: Portrait or Landscape
Quality: 300 DPI
Large and Bold print is more visually pleasing virtually for the viewer
URLs and short audio/video fragments can be included in the poster. These links should open in a new window (not embed in the poster.)
Poster upload will begin June 9. You will receive an e-mail with instructions for how to upload.

Important Requirements for Pre-recorded Video Posters:

Your pre-recorded poster presentation should be 2-3 minutes, and no longer than 3 minutes.
The video must be a YouTube or Vimeo link.
Recorded presentation should be in English.
Instructions to upload your video presentation along with your .pdf poster will be sent via email.

Printed Posters
All posters must be printed; paper is recommended (do not print on canvas or fabric). Make sure posters are printed portrait orientation.

All text and graphics on posters should be in English.

Poster Sessions
NEW for 2025: To accommodate as many presenters as possible, there will be (3) poster session groups in Prague. Your poster will be displayed for 1.5 days during the conference, including one evening session + the following day morning break. You will receive your assigned session date/time and your poster number via e-mail in early June.

Please Read: Due to the high volume of posters and limited space, the June 1 deadline for poster presenters to be registered and paid will be strictly enforced. Your poster will not appear in the abstract book if you miss the deadline.
