Posters should be made to fit in 100 x 120 cm (width x height).

Please ensure that the corresponding number is clearly indicated on the poster itself. Your poster should be readable from a 2-meter distance; as a rough guideline, use a font size of 72 pts for your title, and a minimum of 28 pts for your text.

Posters must be mounted on the day of the presentation between 08:00 and the start of the first session of the day (09:50 on Wednesday, and 08:30 on Thursday and Friday). Posters should only be removed at the end of the day and before 08:00 of the following day (or by 15:30 on Friday, 5 June).

Posters should be mounted with double-sided sticky tape and, although some tape and scissors will be available in the poster display area, you are encouraged to be self-sufficient.
