CONFLICT OF INTEREST DISCLOSURE

All speakers are required to disclose any potential conflicts of interest on a slide at the beginning of their presentation.

Have you or your abstract co-authors, in the past 5 years, received payment, services or awards (e.g. for research, production, manufacture, distribution, marketing, other promotion or sale) from a third party (e.g. commercial, private foundation, NGO, government, etc.) related to any conflicted food or drink, arms, tobacco or pharmaceutical industry corporation or any representative or associated organisation?

 

Conflict of Interest Slide Example:
If NO relevant conflict of interest exists, use this statement:

  • I have nothing to disclose.

If ANY relevant conflict of interest exists, list the following for each:

  • < insert conflict of interest to disclose>

    • <insert role (i.e. speaker, advisory board member, consultant)>

    • <insert what was received? (i.e. honoraria, consultant fees, grant funding)>

​

DISPLAY POSTERS
Poster presentation will take place during the lunch break on Tuesday 19 November 12:40pm to 1:30pm.

Guidelines for Display Posters

  • The poster should be self-explanatory, so that you are free to supplement and discuss points raised by viewers’ enquiries.

  • Diagrams, figures etc. should be heavily drawn and without unnecessary detail.

  • Posters should be a maximum of A0 size, which is 841 mm wide × 1189 mm high.

  • The poster can be attached to the board with Velcro.

  • Boards cannot be written upon.

  • Ensure that your poster is clear and readable for the audience, keeping in mind accessibility for vision impaired. 

  • Use dot points or images to convey the important messages. Please do not overpopulate the page with information. This makes it hard for the audience to read or follow.

  • Consider the learning outcomes for the audience when preparing your poster. What are the take-away messages that you can provide the audience?

  • Include your email address if you would like to be contacted by delegates with questions about your poster.

 

Poster Details

  • You will be directed to your poster allocated spot when you arrive at conference registration check in desk.

  • Please be reminded that posters must be no bigger than A0 sized and that you are required to provide your own Velcro dots. Sticky tape or pins will not work.

  • ‘Presenting’ your poster is not a formal presentation, but an informal opportunity to talk about your work with delegates on Tuesday 19 November during the lunch break 12:40pm to 1:30pm. It simply means that you stand near your poster in order that people who want to discuss the work/your results with you have an opportunity to do so.
