Featured Poster Session Set up Instructions

The AAAAI is looking forward to your participation and Featured Poster presentation at the 2008 Annual Meeting.

The Featured Poster session will be held on Sunday evening, March 16, 2008, from 5:30pm - 7:30pm in the Grand Hall, Pennsylvania Convention Center.

Please be sure to set-up your poster on the appropriate poster board (these will be identified by your poster number) between 3:00pm and 4:00pm on the afternoon of Sunday, March 16th. Your poster will remain on display throughout the evening. It is requested that your poster be dismantled no earlier then 7:30pm and no later then 8:30pm. If you are unable to either hang your poster that afternoon or remove your poster that evening, please contact Krista Perkins, kperkins@aaaai.org, to arrange for staff assistance.

These abstracts will be facilitated by Interest Section leadership who will initiate and promote discussion among the authors and attendees. You are asked to be present with your poster by 5:45pm so you can participate in the discussion and answer any questions attendees and facilitators may have.

Poster Presentation Guidelines
The following are poster preparation guidelines for authors whose abstract was accepted for poster presentation at the 2008 Annual Meeting.

The usable space on these poster boards is 46" high x 94" wide (Landscape orientation). This is the surface space into which one could insert a thumbtack.

The following guidelines are recommended when organizing your poster:

  • Posters should be readable by viewers from up to five feet away.
  • The message should be clear and understandable without oral explanation.
  • Illustrations, labels, etc. must be attached to the poster board with thumbtacks, which will be available in the poster area.
  • A copy of your abstract should be posted in the upper left-hand corner of the poster board.
  • A label indicating the abstract number, abstract title, author and the affiliation should be placed at the top of the poster board, to the right of the abstract. A label listing the funding source(s) must be displayed in the lower right-hand corner of the poster board.
