GUIDELINES for E-Poster



Guidelines for E - Poster:

  • The E-poster will be displayed on standard 49” LCD TV.
  • File format should be PowerPoint (.PPT), CLICK HERE to download the PPT template.
  • Maximum size of the presentation should not exceed more than 05 MB.
  • The e-poster should have only 01 (one) slide.
  • Animation/ movies/ sounds will not be supported; please submit in a static PPT format only.
  • The resolution of the monitors used for e-poster presentation is 1920 x 1080 pixels, and the size is 52.3 cm x 93.3 cm (in Portrait orientation). All presenters are required to set the resolution of their e-posters the same as the monitors.

Design Specifications/ Suggestions:

  • Poster should be written only in the English language.
  • Poster Number (on the top left corner).
  • Title of the E-Poster (should be brief and match the submitted abstract).
  • Names and affiliations of all authors (each author to be marked with superscript Arabic number, such as 1, 2, with their corresponding institute affiliation and their addresses).
  • The logo of the affiliated institution/university should be placed in the upper left-hand top corner, whilst the first author’s colour photograph (passport style) should be placed in the upper right-hand top corner of the poster.
  • Arial font should be used throughout the poster with such clarity that it could be read from 1.5 meters distance. The title and subheadings should be written in bold letters. Italics should be avoided as it would be harder to read from a distance.
  • Be considerate when using colours for the presentation, use only 2-3 colours as this would be a formal scientific poster presentation. Select background colours that contrast well with the font to allow easier reading of your text. Avoid backgrounds with bright or dark colors and full of texture as this will distract readers.
  • Make sure that any photographs or figures being used in the poster are of sufficient size so that they are clearly visible, with a minimum 300-dpi resolution. The number of photographs should be limited to only those that are essential and relevant for the poster (preferably not exceeding 4-6 photos). Do not submit any photographs or pictures that are not relevant to the text, such as cartoon characters, etc. Photographs for case report presentation should be in standard quality for all extra-oral/intra-oral photos and pre-treatment/post-treatment photos. The radiograph’s view must be of good quality and have minimal distortion.
  • Content of Poster Presentation:
    • Research (Introduction, Objectives, Materials and Methods, Results, Conclusion, References, and Acknowledgment).
    • Case Report (Introduction, Objectives, Case Operation Procedure, Discussion, Conclusion References, and Acknowledgment).
    • Literature Review (Introduction, Literature studies, Discussion, Conclusion, and References).
  • Declaration of Conflict of Interest for all authors; if there are no relevant conflicts, this must be included on the poster.
  • Data must be given in units that are generally accepted in scientific publications (the international metric system is preferred).
