Abstract presentations are split into two formats: oral abstracts and poster abstracts.

There will be 90-minute oral abstract sessions. Presenters have 10 minutes each to present their results and 3 minutes to address brief questions.

Poster abstracts are organized into one-hour sessions during which the presenter must be present with their poster to discuss the work with attendees. Posters can be presented at almost any stage of research and provide an excellent opportunity for authors to discuss their methods and findings with other professionals.
