Call for Posters

Poster size can be of your choice but should not exceed 3 ft (91 cm) in width and 4 ft (1.21) cm in height. The posters will be displayed during the whole event and ample time will be allocated to poster discussions. Poster boards and material (tape etc.) for mounting the posters will be provided at the venue. All posters should be removed at the end of the event on March 28th 2014.

Suggestions for effective posters:

 Letters and numbers should be large enough to be readable from 1.5 m. For example, font size recommendations for Arial font: Title = 72 pt; Author and affiliation = 48 pt; Text = 36 pt. Use simple typeface and use bold type for headings.

 Use bullets, and keep text to a minimum. Don’t crowd information onto the poster.  Keep figures and tables simple.

 Use a simple background and colour scheme that does not detract from the information being presented.

 Excessive use of organization logos or advertisements is discouraged.

 If possible, provide miniaturized copies of the poster (e.g., 22 cm x 28 cm; 8.5” x 11”) and your business card.

 Provide an envelope where people can leave their business card for requesting additional information.

 Include a recent photo of yourself in the upper right-hand corner so that people can find you for discussion later.
