Posters should be dismantled no later than 1 hour following the completion of the poster session.
Posters will be displayed on a moveable corkboard display that is 4 feet high by 8 feet wide. We must ask that you do not exceed this display area.Your poster number will correspond to your poster’s listing in the final program.
You may bring your poster already assembled, or you may bring items to be individually posted within the 4 feet high by 8 feet wide area. We will also have plastic pockets available on the bottom of each poster board, so please plan to bring enough copies for distribution. (We are expecting 500+ attendees.) Don’t forget to bring pushpins or Velcro! Here are a few hints for good poster presentations:
¨ Make your poster simple and eye-catching.
¨ Use few panels.
¨ Use large print and a minimum of text.
¨ Graphs and statistical data are typically of interest.
¨ Try to have an introduction and summary panel.
¨ This is an international organization and not all attendees will be fluent in English.
Keep abbreviations and jargon to a minimum.
¨ During the Meet the Author session, stay with your poster so attendees may confer with you.
¨ Bring handouts for distribution (500 attendees are expected).
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the ISOQOL Executive Office (703) 556-9222 or email us at info@isoqol.org. Thanks and we’ll see you in Orlando!!!
