Oral Presentation Guidelines:
Presentation Times:
- Plenary presentations are 45 minutes long, including 35 minutes for the presentation and 10 minutes for questions and discussion.
- Invited or Awards presentations are 30 minutes long, including 25 minutes for the presentation and 5 minutes for questions and discussion.
- Contributed presentations are 15 minutes long, including 12 minutes for the presentation and 3 minutes for questions and discussion.
Audio-Visual Setup:
The conference room will be set up with a screen, microphone, LCD projector, and laptop (PC). NAMBE will provide a laptop (PC) in the session room as well as a KVM switchbox for those who bring their own computers. If you are using the NAMBE provided computer, please load your presentation on to this computer prior to the start of the session or during a session break. In deference to all our presenters, it is important that personal computer/LCD projector compatibility issues be worked out well in advance of your presentation. Please note that PowerPoint is the recommended presentation software. The projector is expected to be compatible with both PC’s and MAC’s; however, we ask that you bring a copy of your presentation on a flash drive as a back-up.
