Presenters in plenary sessions are allowed eighty minutes for their presentations and a period of ten minutes is allowed for questions and discussion at the end of the session.

Microphone

The conference will include simultaneous interpretation in French and English. To avoid service interruptions and ensure that interpretation is available at all times to those who need it, all presenters will be required to use a headset with an integrated boom microphone or an approved table-top microphone. This equipment is mandatory and helps ensure that the sound quality is sufficient for interpretation. Please do not use your computer microphone. Shared omni-directional microphones, wireless microphones (Bluetooth) or earbuds with microphones (Earpods or Airpods) must not be used.

Poster session

Our symposium being virtual, the format of the posters will be a presentation of up to five slides. The posters will be available during the full symposium, but on Friday November 4th from 9:00-10:00 Eastern time, a specific one hour session for poster participants will be included in the program. During this time, symposium participants will be able to communicate with you to discuss questions they might have about your poster.
