New! Flash E-Poster Presentations:
- Total time: 2 minutes
- Format:
- 2‑minute presentation
- No Q&A
- Created to spotlight high‑impact work in a concise, dynamic format, emphasizing the importance and visibility of the research.
We understand that the idea of delivering a scientific presentation in just two minutes can feel a bit daunting—after all, two minutes in a dentist’s chair can feel like forever! But in the context of a Flash session, two minutes will fly by.
This format is designed to showcase cutting-edge research in action, offering a unique opportunity to highlight the broader significance and value of your work. Rather than diving into complex details. We encourage you to focus on key insights that spark the audience’s interest.
Here’s a simple structure to help guide your two-minute pitch; think elevator pitch:
- Why – Why is this research important, necessary, or innovative?
- What – What was done? Keep it concise and clear.
- Wow! – What is the key takeaway? What did we learn?
The goal is to intrigue, inspire, and encourage your audience to visit your e-poster for a more in-depth view.
Feel free to bring energy and enthusiasm—this is your moment to make your work shine.
Where: E-Poster presentations will take place in front of the 15 e-Poster stations onsite. Please view the programme to find your station, presentation date and time.
