Please remove all poster-mounting material from the board. The Congress staff will remove posters not taken down on time. The Congress Organisers will not accept any responsibility for posters or other material left in the exhibition area.

Poster material
The maximum size of the poster should be 90 cm (width) x 120 cm (height), portrait style. The poster number will be displayed with large printed figures in a corner of the poster board. Posters should be attached on the surface by materials which will be provided to you by the Congress staff at the poster exhibition desk in the poster exhibition area.

Text layout
Give a short and comprehensive review of the basic items of your study. Divide your text into several clearly delineated paragraphs and sections such as Introduction or Aim of Study, Materials and Methods, Result and Conclusions. Remember that it is easier to read a paragraph of six lines or less. Your poster text should be enlarged so that it can be read at a distance of about one meter.

Illustration layout
Drawings, diagrams and photos are very helpful and often necessary to display results and conclusions. Make sure that your illustrations are easy to understand; do not overload any chart or drawing with information.
