Presentation Formats

Oral Presentations

Each meeting participant may make only one oral presentation. Oral presentations will be limited to 12 minutes with an additional 3 minutes for discussion. All abstracts will be reviewed by scientific committee members and co-chairs of the each session of the #1 Topic Preference which is to be designated by the presenter on the abstract form. Due to the large number of oral presentation requests, some requests may be assigned to the #2 Topic Preference for presentation or assigned to a poster.

Poster Sessions

There will be two poster sessions on Sunday and Monday afternoons. Authors scheduled in poster sessions will be assigned a poster board space for display of illustrative materials such as text, charts, graphs and tables. The maximum dimension of each poster including the title, must not exceed 4 feet high x 3.5 feet wide. Posters will be displayed in the same area where the plenary sessions are held and this will give participants easy access to the posters. Every effort will be made to assign posters to the #1 Topic of Preference. Nido2011 poster sessions are usually well attended and afford a unique opportunity to present and discuss detailed data with a large number of meeting participants.
