ePosters
An electronic poster (ePoster) is an electronic submission of the poster presented at the annual meeting. Posters will be created according to the guidelines provided upon acceptance and upload an electronic copy to a specified website for reviewing. Final ePosters will be due approximately 2 weeks prior to the meeting to allow time for off-site review. Further details and information will be communicated with the accepted presenter regarding the electronic poster process upon notification of abstract acceptance. See examples of last year’s ePosters.
