POSTER SESSION INFORMATION

 

Each author will be provided an 8' long x 4' high poster board for display purposes. Authors are responsible for the set up and tear down of their printed material. Any visual aids which might clarify the results of work are encouraged. These can include diagrams, charts, figures, illustrations, etc. However, do not post your paper text.

Note that graphics should be simple, colorful, well-labeled, and clear. The title should be written in letters 2 to 5 cm high, and all material should be readable from a distance of 2m.

The presenting author is responsible for registering for the meeting and making housing arrangements.

If a situation develops where it will be impossible for the designated lead author or a co-author to personally present the poster at the meeting, please notify the TMS Programming Department immediately. TMS must pre-order and absorb the cost of each poster board rental and delivery. Any author not giving proper notice of cancellation may be invoiced for the expense of said poster boards.

NOTE: Computers are NOT supplied. We STRONGLY encourage authors to bring their own laptop, either Mac or PC to avoid any issues with software.

So, please bring a back-up on memory stick.

Authors are asked to set up their laptop at one of the 4 switches a few talks in advance of their own timeslot. This helps facilitate the smooth transition between presentations.
