Presentation Guidelines

This year’s conferences will have two types of oral presentations: Elevator Pitches and Oral Presentations. 

Elevator Pitches: These presentations are short 5 minute talks. Time for questions will depend on the number of accepted submissions. This information will be sent out to presenters upon acceptance. Presenters will be given a “1 min remaining” warning. 

Oral Presentations: These presentations are 10-12 min talks with 2-3 minutes for questions. Specific timing will be sent out with confirmations, as this will depend on the number of accepted submissions. Presenters will prepare a presentation. Presenters will be given a “2 min remaining” warning.

Note: The organizing team has made the decision to exclude a traditional poster session. Our reasons are the logistical and financial costs associated with printed posters; especially if it will only be used at the HRSGRC. If you have a poster already printed, you can indicate this in the submission form. If there is enough interest, the organizers may consider having a small traditional poster session.
