INFORMATION ABOUT SCIENTIFIC POSTERS
PRESENTATIONS NOVEMBER 10: The virtual conference format chosen will allow for a science poster presentation session very similar to the in-person format. Each person wishing to present a poster must be in front of their virtual poster during the designated period. Each poster will have its own virtual space allowing a small number of people to visit at a time. Visitors will be able to easily walk around from poster to poster and ask questions.
FORMAT FOR NOVEMBER 10: To adjust to new realities, the requested format will be in the form of 5 Powerpoint slides. During the November 10 session, you will be able to present in a screenshot mode and chat with those who come to your poster. You will need to have your Powerpoint Presentation (without pre-recorded narration) available locally on your computer to present. However, for evaluations, you must submit your presentation with audio in advance. See “POSTER EVALUATION” below.
PRIZES: There will be an award ceremony similar to other years. So this is a good opportunity for students to add a line to their CV at this time when opportunities are scarce.
ABSTRACT: A summary is still required (like in other years) to direct guests to the posters that interest them. Information for abstract submission is detailed below and on the submission form. A link will be sent to you after your registration to access the submission form. You can also access this form through a “Summaries” tab in the menu, visible only when you are connected to the site with your username. The deadline for the submission of abstracts is Friday, October 30.
1. Abstracts can be written in French or English.
2. The total length of the abstract, including spaces, is a maximum of 2500 characters.
3. The title should not contain an abbreviation.
4. The “authors” section must contain, in CAPITAL letters, the full name (family name followed by the first name) of the first author (presenter), then in lowercase, the names and first names of the other authors, the research center or department. involved. Do not mention the titles and responsibilities of the authors.
5. The body of the summary should be written in a single block, so no line breaks or spaces.
6. Each section of the summary should be identified by the words in CAPITAL LETTER: OBJECTIVE, METHODS, RESULTS, CONCLUSION.
7. Abstracts should not contain references or acknowledgments.
8. RE-READ your abstract once inserted in the form and make sure that the special characters are still present, if necessary.
POSTER EVALUATION: For the evaluation, you will have to provide a narrated Powerpoint (with audio) before November 5. It is these pre-recorded presentations that will be evaluated. There will be no evaluation on November 10. The PowerPoint must have a maximum of 5 slides and 5 minutes of presentation (recorded voice). In order to allow an acceptable file size, we ask that you record your audio directly in Powerpoint as shown below. (without video)
