  • Poster size: The maximum poster size is DIN A0 portrait (1189 mm x 841 mm).
  • Poster mounting: Please mount your poster on Sunday, August 27, between 17:00 and 20:00 during the “Get Together”, or on Monday, August 28, from 8:00 – 9:15. Mounting material will be provided at the poster boards. Posters can be removed after the last poster session on Wednesday, August 30, but at the latest after the closing ceremony. Please note that all posters remaining after 16:00 will be removed and disposed.
  • If your contribution has been selected as short poster presentation, in addition to the poster please prepare a short presentation (PPTX/PDF) of 3 minutes (maximum 3-4 slides including title, authors, affiliations). The presentations need to be uploaded on Sunday, August 27, during the get together or latest on Monday, August 28, from
    8:00 – 9:15 at the “short poster presentation upload” room.

Information for chairs

  • You are kindly asked to switch between presentations by simply announcing the name of the next presenter and the title of the presentation. Due to the tight schedule, there will be no sufficient time for introducing individual lecturers in a more detailed manner.
  • Please do your best to strictly limit the duration of each presentation and discussion to the allotted time.
  • If a lecturer is missing, please stick to the original program, i.e., extend the discussion time of the preceding presentation or allow a break for the duration of the missing lecture. This enables participants to move in between sessions and to listen to chosen individual lectures according to the announced sequence.
