Meeting Logistics
Present your research or chair an event at a scientific meeting
We've prepared guidelines and logistical details to help you give an effective presentation or run a successful scientific meeting session.
An oral presentation shares your research with a broad audience, including potential collaborators.
Presenting a poster allows you to communicate your research at a one-on-one level.
Giving a virtual presentation can be just as compelling and engaging as an in-person presentation.
The session chair guidelines ensure that chairs are prepared before and during the meeting to oversee a successful session.
