Poster Session structure

Jury sessions for 24 different disciplines will take place in 2 time slots during the conference. Please be present at the site of your poster session at least 10 minutes before the start of your presentation. A Jury will review each poster during the poster session and you will be asked to discuss your work with the chair of the poster session and an interested audience.
The session participants will be divided in two groups. All participants will receive a poster number that ends with the letter A or B. If your poster number has an A at the end (group A) your poster will be reviewed by the jury in the first half hour of the session. If your poster number has a B at the end (group B), your poster will be reviewed by the jury in the second half hour of the session. There will be time to peruse other posters after your allocated session.
