POSTER PRESENTATIONS
This year posters will be IN PERSON ONLY with a free standing board.
We have dedicated the following times for Poster Sessions during the ARA.
Some poster boards will be located in the back of the Industry Exhibition Room and some will be located outside of the Ballrooms. We will advise you on the day where your poster board with your corresponding number will be located. Poster numbers are in the attached document and you will be able to identify your poster board with the corresponding number on the day. Velcro will be supplied for you to adhere your poster to the boards. They will be on display for the duration of the meeting and can be put up from 6.00 pm on Saturday 6th May 2023, but must be removed by the end of Lunch on Tuesday.
PLEASE NOTE – VERY IMPORTANT – posters can only be portrait style. We cannot accommodate landscape posters due to space restrictions.

Poster Tours
A small selection of posters will also be selected by the ASM Committee to be part of a Small Group Poster Tour. You will be notified next week individually if you are included in one of these.
Snap Printing Hobart – Hobart Poster Printing *if required
You can arrange to have your poster printed in Hobart by Snap Printing Hobart and they will physically deliver to Hotel, but only during Mon-Fri business hours and authors need to alert Hotel that it is coming to be put aside. This is at your own cost.
It is a requirement for presenters to be registered for the conference in Hobart. Those who have not registered by the cut off date Friday 31st March will have their abstracts removed from the program. Should someone else be presenting this on your behalf, please advise us accordingly so we can update our program.
The posters will be located in the foyer and exhibition area at the Hotel Grand Chancellor. They will be on display for the duration of the meeting and can be put up from 6.00 pm on Saturday 6th May 2023, but must be removed by the end of Lunch on Tuesday.
Posters must fit a poster display space of 1 metre wide x 1.2 metres high (A0 portrait style) including the heading. Velcro tabs will be provided to fix your poster to the board – pins must not be used.
Hints and tips
Poster presentations should be well thought out and visually appealing, with a balance of text, graphics and neutral space.
The movement (pathway) of the eye through the presentation should be natural (down columns and along rows).
The Title slide should have the same title as the submitted abstract and the program.
Include the name of the presenter(s) and each affiliation (institution or organisation) for each author.
Avoid using ALL-CAPITAL text as it is difficult to read.
The text should be brief throughout, i.e. any description of methods should be simple and concise.
POSTER NUMBER
The full scientific program will be uploaded by 15 March 2023 and please note your poster number for uploading i.e. Listed as P[Number] e.g P112. WE WILL NEED THIS TO IDENTIFY YOUR POSTER.
If you do not intend to present your free paper, please notify the Meeting Manager as soon as possible.
