Concurrent Session Presenters
Dear Oral Presenters and Replacement Authors,
This is last update (October, 2005) to the Author’s link and includes
important conference information.
REGISTRATION
All presenting authors for both concurrent sessions
and poster sessions must be fully registered for the conference.
Oral presenters will be directed onsite to the speaker ready room
and must present a registration badge in order to have their presentation
accepted.
It is highly recommended that you pre register to bypass any extended
waits at the registration area.
ORAL CONCURRENT SESSIONS
It is the responsibility of the first author to ensure
that he / she or a replacing author returns a faculty disclosure
form. The same stringent more stringent regulations apply to a replacing
author and in order for your presentation to qualify for CME credit,
a faculty disclosure is required in advance of the program.
If your replacing author has not already done so, could you please
download the faculty disclosure and send the completed disclosure
along with your CV to:
Please refer to the online program for the day, date and time of
your concurrent session(s).

At The Conference: Oral Presentations Instructions
Upon arrival at registration, you will be directed
to the speaker ready room to deliver a final copy of your AV presentation
to be used during the concurrent session.
You must be registered and present your registration badge at the
Speaker Ready Room.
The presentations will be loaded onto the conference network, and
not in the meeting rooms where the concurrent sessions are being
held.
Presentation Timing
Your presentation cannot exceed 15 minutes of verbal
presentation. A room monitor will be in the room, holding time cards
as a reminder of where you are in the presentation.
The remaining period of time will be dedicated to Q&A from
the audience, also managed by a room monitor.
Submission : 24 hours in Advance of Your Presentation
Presentations must be submitted 24 hours in advance
of your presentation. Due to the number of presentations we need
to handle, your presentation needs to be submitted in a timely manner
to ensure your presentation gets posted on to the conference network.
After submission to the speaker ready room, changes cannot be made
to your presentation.
Presentation Copies
Two copies of your presentation should be labeled
with the following information CDROM or Flash Drive:
- Concurrent Session Title (please note that you will receive
a second notice on the session you are presenting in)
- Date of presentation
- Time
- Title of Presentation
- Author's Name
- Email Contact Information
- Hotel Location while in Boston
Slides must be prepared in Microsoft PowerPoint (U.S. letter size
in landscape page layout) and please use common fonts where possible
and provide, with your submission, any special fonts used. In addition,
if you have any imbedded videos, please make sure the file is included
with your submission.
Audio Visual
Adequate Audio Visual Equipment will be provided
in your presentation including computer, LCD Projector and a remote
slide changer supported by audio and technical support. 35mm slide
projectors and overhead will not be automatically provided.
