POSTER PRESENTATIONS

You can place your scientific posters in the Grand Salon as soon as you arrive. The official reception is between 8h and 8h30. If you wish, the Grand Salon should even be accessible from 7:30.

The boards will be numbered from 1 to 70. Consult the participants' booklet to find out what your poster number is: it corresponds to your abstract number.

This year, there will be two poster sessions to allow all presenters to also have the opportunity to view their colleagues' posters. The odd-numbered posters will be presented during the first session (11.10-12.00) and the even-numbered ones at the second (12.30-13.15). Presenters should make sure they are present in front of their poster during their session. The day will end with the presentation of prizes to the students who presented the best posters and a cocktail party at the Pub de l'Université Laval.
