Poster Setting

Posters will be presented in the Exhibition hall of the conference centre.

The location and number of your poster (for example P 001) will be disclosed to you via email at a time nearing the conference opening date. (Please check your spam folder in the lead up to the conference).

 

Authors are required to mount their posters themselves (with assistance of PTW staff on-site). Setting-up a poster generally takes at least 10 minutes.
