ignite:

Ignite-style lightning talks follow a standard format that encourages short, engaging presentations that focus on the key points of the research. Each talk consists of 20 slides that auto-advance every 15 seconds, for a total of five minutes.

Ignite talks are allocated 7 minutes
5 minutes for the talk; 2 minutes for questions

You are limited to no more than 20 slides, and they must be set to auto-advance every 15 seconds.

Be sure to practice your talk to ensure that you stay within the time limit and can manage the slide transitions.

poster presentations

ALL posterS:

Poster dimensions are 36" x 45" LANDSCAPE.

Presenters are responsible for creating and printing their own posters.

Foam board, tacks, and easels will be available in the poster location.

Unless otherwise noted, posters may be set up as early as Thursday evening.

You must take down your poster by the end of the meeting on Saturday.

Please remove the tacks, collapse the easel, and place both in the designated collection areas.

Recommendations:
Keep content simple and provide a clear message in text that is large enough to read from a distance. Further details can be provided in discussions with attendees or via a handout that also includes your contact information.
