Information for Posters

POSTERS

Each poster author will be provided with one side of a free-standing board. We will provide double-sided sticky tape to fix it to the board. The posters are limited to a standard A0 (841 x 1189 mm; 33.1 x 46.8 inch, portrait orientation) size or smaller.
The posters can be put up on Sunday afternoon during the reception, or any time during the week.

Poster session

During 4 short sessions throughout the first 3 days (see the Programme), all poster authors are invited to give a short (1 minute, strict) summary talk of their poster.  You should present the main idea and focus on inviting people to your poster to discuss more; you should not attempt to explain all of the method and results within 1 minute. 

Presentations should be made available to the IT contact person in the conference room by 08:30 on the day of your presentation.

The name of the file should be <your last name>_<keyword of the title of your poster>.pdf/ppt/pptx.

During Monday - Wednesday, an SOC committee will carefully assess all posters, choosing a single poster and naming its creator as the “poster prize winner”. This person will be invited to present a 15 minute talk (12 minutes + 3 minutes for questions) on Thursday afternoon.

Zenodo

We intend to make poster presentations available in Zenodo:
http://www.eso.org/sci/meetings/2017/star-formation2017/zenodo.html

You will be asked to sign a document to agree (or not) that the poster presentation be converted to pdf and uploaded to Zenodo.
If you wish to provide an edited version, it should be made available to us by March 17.

We intend to record all posters and discussion and make them also available through Zenodo together with the presentation.
You will be asked to sign a document agreeing (or not) to have the recorded presentation distributed through Zenodo.
