Instructions for Presenters

Your contributions to fusion engineering reflect years of hard work and dedication.  Please see below for instructions/specifications to ensure that your presentation goes smoothly.

ORAL PRESENTERS

• Use 16:9 aspect ratio for your slides and save your presentation in PowerPoint (*.pptx) or export as a PDF. 

• Have your slides on a USB thumb drive and arrive at least 20 minutes prior to the start of the session so you can load your presentation on the conference computer (Windows laptop).  Presenters will not be able to use their own computers.  There will be a "speaker room" with an identical laptop and projector for testing of presentations/videos.

• Plenary talks are 50 minutes + 10 minutes for questions.

• Invited talks are 25 minutes + 5 minutes for questions.

• Contributed talks are 17 minutes + 3 minutes for questions.

POSTER PRESENTERS

• Maximum Poster dimensions: 70" wide x 36" tall (177cm x 91cm) (landscape orientation)

• Posters will be displayed on partitions and mounted with tacks. Please do not have your poster mounted on foam board.

• MIT CopyTech is standing by to assist with any print requests (including large format posters). Upload your poster online using their e-printing service. The cost to print is roughly $120USD and you can pick up your printed poster on campus.
