Powerpoint instructions

Management on-site
The staff will assist you
with any changes you may have and make sure that your presentation is uploaded
on the conference PC in the session room.
Your USB stick cannot be given directly to the technical staff in the meeting room, but bring your presentation along (on the relevant device) to the meeting room in case a problem would occur.
You are requested to verify the content of your slide presentation (images, text, movies etc…) on the computer at the speaker desk. Please note that the organisers cannot be held liable for any loss of images during data transfer (CD-ROM, USB stick etc…).
Presentations from a personal laptop will not be allowed.
The session chairpersons will be present at the front of the meeting room during the last 15 minutes of the break prior to your session. In those 15 minutes, please introduce yourself to the chairpersons and familiarise yourself with the AV tools.
No more changes can be made inside the room where the session takes place. The meeting room has a technician to assist you with your presentation if needed.
Please hand in a pdf version of your oral or poster presentation at the registration desk for the symposium proceedings.
