Important Guidelines for Presenters
Here are a few practical things to you get ready for the event on Thu 25th and Fri 26th of November 2021.

Most will know that this is now a fully online event. We will be using Zoom to deliver the presentations over the two days.
We suggest you create a free Zoom account if you don’t already have an account and download the desktop or mobile app (it’s free). You can also participate using the web browser although this provides a more limited experience.
All main authors who have submitted the abstract on the CMT system are the key contact for each submission and will receive a link to give them exclusive presenter access on the day.
Please ensure that when joining Zoom on the day, to use your full name (first name followed by surname) to enter. Please avoid using pseudonyms.
We advise signing into your zoom account and making sure your web camera and microphone work properly well in advance of the symposium.

Powerpoint slides
Please ensure that you have prepared Powerpoint slides for your presentations and that your first slide (cover slide) includes your presentation title, affiliation, authors and co-authors details.
To avoid technical issues, we generally advise against using videos or links to videos in your slides. But if you must use a video, please ensure the video is “embedded” into the slides.
See this YouTube video for more details on how to embed.
Presentation pre-recordings
Your presentations must be pre-recorded videos (MP4 files) and sent to us in advance. See more details below as to how to get your pre-recordings to us
Length of pre-recordings
We have very tight schedules for the two days so it is important that you strictly stick to the allocated time:
- Research/Creative presentations: 15 minutes max
- Information Presentations: 10 minutes Max
- Poster Presentations: 10 minutes Max (Poster presentations need to be one slide only)
Your pre-recordings must not go over the time allocations provided above.
Getting your Powerpoint slides and pre-recordings to us
Please use the last name of the main author to name both your Powerpoint and Pre-recorded MP4 file.
Over the next week, we will email out a link to a cloud dropbox. Please upload your Powerpoint Slides and Pre-recordings to the link we will provide.
