Poster Sessions:
Posters provide an ideal opportunity for those new to presenting, or ‘testing out’ ideas in formation, to discuss their work using a visual format. Wall poster displays will be allocated 25 minutes in the Conference programme when presenters should be with their posters and delegates are invited to engage in dialogue and informal exchange. However, the posters will be on show in a specific location throughout the Conference. Posters will be displayed on 6 foot by 4 foot poster board.

We recommend that poster presenters look at the guidelines set out at:

Individual Papers:
Each abstract accepted for individual presentation will be allocated 25 minutes for presentation and discussion. Generally, we recommend that you plan for a maximum of 15 minutes speaking, and at least 10 minutes for questions so that you can benefit from interaction with and feedback from the audience on your topic.

Symposia:
A symposium consists of the presentation of three or four related papers on a single theme, presented within a 75 minute session and led by a Symposium Convenor. The following should be provided:

• A clear symposium title;
• Name of the Chair (the Chair is usually a member of the symposium);
• The Convenor’s institution;
• A 400 word overview of the symposium submitted by the convenor;
• A separate abstract for each presentation, including the names and details of all participating presenters. These may be submitted by the chair, or submitted by individual presenters using the online submission system.
