to the following guidelines:
ORAL PRESENTATION
Eight minutes are allocated for oral presentation and 2 minutes for discussion (10 minutes
in total). Please provide your presentation in Power Point format to the slide room at least
2 hours before your presentation. Use of private laptops is strongly discouraged. Microsoft PowerPoint is preferred and must be PC-format. If you use Mac Keynote, you must bring your own computer, power supply and mini display port to VGA projector adaptor.
If you do have video as part of your PowerPoint presentation, please turn in your presentation to the technician at least 6 hours in advance so that it can be checked for video playback issues.
The Best Oral Presentation will be selected and awarded with a Book entitled
‘Surgery of the Thyroid and Parathyroid Glands’ Gregory W. Randolph, ed.
VIDEO PRESENTATION
Eight minutes are allocated for video presentation and 2 minutes for discussion (10 minutes
in total).
Please be aware of the size of your video files. In most cases, lower resolution video files are very effective. While we try to support as many PC video formats as possible, we suggest MPEG 1, MPEG 2 or WMV files for maximum compatibility at all meetings.
POSTER PRESENTATION
The Posters will be located in the special designated poster display area.
Poster Boards are of size 80 cm wide and 120 cm high. Abstract number corresponds
with the board number.
All Posters must be in position by 10:00am on Friday, September 18, 2015.
A Jury composed of the Poster Committee will inspect the Posters during coffee breaks
on Friday 18, 2016. The authors of the Posters will be expected to be present at the poster site during these inspections and to answer questions relating to the Poster for a short period
of time (2 minutes). During this time, any other Congress delegates present may also ask questions.
The Best Poster will be selected and awarded with a Book entitled ‘Surgery of the Thyroid and Parathyroid Glands’ Gregory W. Randolph, ed.
