Poster and Oral Presentation Instructions

Please read this page carefully to best prepare for the conference.

Each accepted abstract will be expected to have an accompanying traditional research poster by the presenting author(s) during poster sessions A, B, or C. If your abstract is accepted and you applied for an oral presentation, you may be selected to present your research with a slide deck during the breakout sessions in addition to presenting a traditional poster.

Posters

Maximum poster size: 40” width by 30” height

Anything larger will not fit on the poster panels and may not be properly displayed. Slightly smaller sizes are allowed. Please note our conference is not offering poster printing services, please prepare accordingly.

Submission Date: Posters do not need to be submitted. Presenters must bring their poster to the conference on 04/12/25.

Setup: Please arrive 15 minutes early to the ERC before your assigned poster session begins to set up your poster in your designated spot. All participants will be provided the materials needed to put up their poster. Check your email for details regarding your session and assigned poster number. Additionally, consult our schedule for the specific timing of your session.

Poster removal: After your session concludes, please remove your poster from the board to allow the next group to set up their materials.

Oral Presentation

Presentation structure: Aim to speak for 10 minutes, and 5 minutes of Q&A after. Please prepare a slide deck with diagrams and visuals to enhance understanding and maintain audience engagement. Presentations should include background/motivation, problem, methodology, results, and future directions.

Submission: Presentation slides must be submitted to us at “ivyprehealth@brown.edu” by 03/15/24 for review. Aim to have 1 slide per minute of presenting.

Style: You are free to be creative in your slides, but please include a clear introduction, objectives of your study, and a concise discussion of your findings.
