Presenter guidelines for oral and poster presentations

ORAL PRESENTATIONS

Oral presentations are organized in sessions scheduled in specific lecture rooms, indicated in the program together with the time of presentation of each contribution including discussion and change-over.

Your presentation should last 20 minutes maximum including time for questions and discussion. You are recommended to prepare a 15-minute talk which will be followed by a 5 minutes of discussion. For Authors of poster presentations, a 3 minute oral presentation (1 slide) is offered.

The oral presentations are organized centrally. Therefore, the authors are kindly asked to upload their presentations for the day before the oral presentation on the Google Drive of the conference (personal link available on the webpage of the paper - "Google Drive link" field). If your presentation is not uploaded in this way, you are asked to upload the presentation 30 minutes prior to the time block of the session. If you need help, a lecture room assistant will be available.

If you know that your presentation will not be presented, you are asked to withdraw your contribution as soon as possible.
