CERF 2015 POSTER PRESENTATION GUIDELINESPoster sessions are an essential component of CERF conferences and provide participants with a valuable opportunity to share their research, communicate about scientific advancements, and network with colleagues. These guidelines are also available as a PDF. LOCATION & SCHEDULEPosters at CERF 2015 will be on display in Exhibit Hall A in two sessions: Each poster will be assigned a number and location in Exhibit Hall A. Assignments, mounting materials and a map will be provided at the Poster Information Booth inside the exhibit hall. The location of your poster will also be advertised in the conference program and a directional map will be displayed in the poster hall. Take-down. Since there are two poster sessions during the conference, we ask that presenters in Poster Session 1 be prompt in removing their posters from the Exhibit Hall on November 10. Any posters not taken-down by 5:30 pm on November 10 will be removed and held at the Poster Information Booth in Exhibit Hall A until 10:00 am on November 11. After this time, any posters left from Session 1 will be recycled. The poster boards in the Exhibit Hall will be promptly taken-down on November 12. CERF asks that poster presenters from Session 2 remove their posters before the Close-Out Party & Student Awards at 5:30 pm to facilitate this process. Posters remaining after 5:30 pm on November 12 will be recycled. Poster Printing. Presenters are responsible for creating and printing their own posters. For authors who would prefer their posters be printed in Portland, CERF’s Exhibition Services partner, DWA Trade Show & Exposition Services, offers convenient poster printing at discounted rates. Posters must be submitted by October 26 for the advanced price. Please contact DWA for pricing and availability after October 26. Posters printed by DWA will be available for pick-up at the Poster Information Booth at the Exhibition Hall.
