Oral Presentation Guidelines

• Every presenter has a 30 minute time frame for the oral presentation. We recommend to plan in 20 minutes for the presentation and 10 minutes for a discussion.
• The presentation must be brought on an USB-stick.
• If you use a PowerPoint Presentation, ideally store it also as a pdf as formatting might change based on the PC you are using.
• Please be in the room at least 10 minutes prior to the start of the session and upload your presentation on the PC.

Session Chair Guidelines

• Every oral presentation session will be chaired by the last presenter in the group according to the program.
• Please be in the room at least 10 minutes in advance.
• Please make sure that all presentations are uploaded successfully on the presentation PC.
• It will be your responsibility to open the session and moderate it. Welcome and introduce the presenters.
• Keep an eye on the time frame during presentations and discussions and manage the time accordingly.
