📍 For poster presentations, follow these specifications:

• Size & Layout: Your poster should be Portrait A0 sizing (maximum 841 mm × 1189 mm).
  To ensure there is space between each presentation, poster walls will not always be aligned in a straight line, but may stand together in small groups to maximize visibility. Therefore, it is essential that your poster does not exceed the maximum width of 841 mm.
• Readability: All text, figures, and titles must be large enough to be easily legible from a distance of at least 2 meters.
• A poster printed on one large sheet of paper is encouraged.
• Poster number labels will be provided on site and will be placed above your poster on the board.
• Content: Must be entirely in English and clearly display the title, author names, and institutional affiliations.
  
• You’re invited to hang up your poster as soon as possible on the day of your poster session, and remove it at the end of that day. The congress organizers will not be responsible for remaining posters.

Please note posters should NOT be sent to the Committee, nor the congress organizers, but should be brought as a hardcopy by the presenter and placed on their numbered board.
