Poster Presentation Guidelines
At least one author of the poster must be registered to attend the congress.
All posters must conform to the following guidelines:
A0 – 841mm x 1090 mm PORTRAIT.
A poster should include a clearly visible title at the top centre, followed by author and affiliation information underneath, including e-mail address / addresses.
Effective visual display of information is essential in a poster presentation. To achieve this goal, author(s) should concentrate on two or three main points and should prefer graphic displays over text to illustrate their message effectively. Overall, a poster should have more graphics than text. In addition, graphics should be simple to understand, with contrasting colours and no grid lines.
Poster text should be easily readable from a distance of 1-2 metres, and 1.5 or 2 lines of spaces should be used between each line. It is advised that authors should also pay attention to the following points:
Please carry double sided tape to stick up your poster. The congress organisers will provide Prestik (Blu Tack) as a backup.
Poster presenters are encouraged to be present at their posters during tea and lunch breaks daily.
