CRS 2006 Podium Guidelines
The following information is provided to assist you in preparation of your podium presentation.
Presentation Time
All presenters must adhere to the published presentation schedule. Presenters are allotted 15 minutes (12 minutes for presentation and 3 minutes for discussion).
Official Conference Language
English is the official language of the Controlled Release Society. Please remember this is an international meeting, and there will be many in attendance who may have difficulty understanding English and for whom English is not their first language. Please speak slowly and clearly. As the presenter, if your native language is not English please have the transcripts of your presentation edited. If you are not comfortable speaking English, please bring a colleague who may assist with questions and answers from the floor.
Authors and Co-authors
If you are the senior investigator of a paper being presented by a junior scientist, we encourage your presence at the time the paper is presented and please feel free to participate in the discussion.
Session Chair
Please identify yourself to the session chair prior to the session. Session chairs have been asked to keep presentations on schedule and to stimulate discussion periods. Session chairs will not reschedule presentation times, so please do not ask.
Audio-Visual
The only audio-visual presentation option is a single LCD projector. Overhead projectors, slide projectors, and video-enhanced equipment are not allowed. All speakers making an oral presentation are required to check in at the Presentation Preview Room (Hall P) at least 24 hours in advance of their presentations so their presentations can be pre-loaded into the audio-visual network. Presenters are not allowed to use their own laptops.
Hall P, located in the Austria Center, will be available for speaker preparation and presentation preview. LCD projectors will be available for viewing, and a technician will be available. The speaker preparation room schedule is as follows:

You will be provided a poster board that is 130 cm (height) × 90 cm (width) for mounting your descriptive material. POSTER TITLES ARE NOT PROVIDED. Poster boards will be arranged numerically and will be organized by area of topic. Poster locations correspond to the number assigned to each poster. Please consult with the Poster Information Desk, located at the Attendee Services Desk, regarding the location of your poster board. Be sure to bring any supplies you may need for attaching your poster to the poster board. These supplies should include double-sided tape or both sides of Velcro (pins are not allowed). CRS WILL NOT PROVIDE SUPPLIES.
Presenting Author Identity
Poster viewing is in a high traffic area, so your poster will be viewed frequently during all open hours. Please attach a photo of yourself on the board, so interested attendees may readily identify you for questions and discussion. You will also be provided with an identifying Poster Presenter ribbon.
