  Guidelines for Oral Presentations

  Collapse all Expand all

  Oral presentations can either be done live (on-site or online) or pre-recorded and then played back live during your session. 

  For pre-recorded presentations, you or your co-author/s must register for the conference and attend the session in order to facilitate the playback of your pre-recorded presentation file in case of technical difficulties.

  Each presentation should not be more than 10 minutes in length. Since time usually goes very fast when one is presenting, it would be best to state your key points or findings at the beginning. Keep your introductory remarks very short (not more than 1 minute), and avoid reading every line on your slides.

  To ensure that you are able to make a complete presentation within the time allotment, do not prepare too many slides. If you spend one minute per slide, then the maximum number of slides for 10 minutes is 10 slides. If there is at least one slide that you need to explain further, then you should have fewer than 10 slides.

  💡Tip: After you have prepared your presentation, review each slide to see how essential it is to your presentation. And then remove slides that are not necessary. Put key points first in case you run out of time.

  Guidelines for Poster Presentations

  Poster presentations are only applicable to registered on-site participants. There will be no online poster presentations.

  However, if you are registered as an online participant and your submission has been accepted as a poster presentation, your poster will still be displayed on the virtual conference platform.

  To poster presenters who will attend either online or on-site, you can submit your poster files via the Indico platform (please see guide on how to navigate indico and submit presentation materials) until 02 October 2026.
