Poster Information

Poster presentations will play a key role in the success of NCER 2013. Much time will be dedicated for viewing posters allowing scientists, policy makers, planners, practitioners and managers to interact and use these opportunities to share details of their work, successes and lessons learned. All posters will be up the entire conference.

Poster Specifications

• Posters are limited to 4 feet high x 8 feet wide
  (1.22M high x 2.44M wide).
• Allow a 4-inch x 4-inch space (10.16cm x 10.16cm) for a poster number in the upper left-hand corner of your poster. Each poster will be assigned a number in advance so that you will know where to place your poster.
  NOTE: Boards are outlined with a metal frame, so you may want to cut back an inch or two on each side so it is slightly smaller than the board.
• Poster boards will be freestanding and contiguously connected to each other.
• Presenters must use the poster boards provided by the Conference.
• Poster boards are covered with fabric, and posters can be affixed using either Velcro or ¾” long push pins. Tape is not permitted. A limited supply of Velcro tape will be available for your use during mounting, but we recommend you bring a supply with you. Multiple strips two inches in length work best.
• Early morning, mid-day and afternoon refreshments will be served in the poster session room each day. In addition, there will be a formal poster session reception on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. (See detailed schedule below)
• NOTE: All posters will be on display the entire conference. Half of our poster presenters will be asked to stand at their poster during the Formal Poster Session One on Tuesday, and the other half will do the same during Formal Poster Session Two on Thursday. Please consult the Poster Session Directory to view your assigned session.

NOTE: Email bmt@ufl.edu no later than 30-days prior to the conference if you have special placement requests.
