STEP 3: Register for the conference and Prepare your E-poster for submission

Registration:

• It is mandatory to register for the IUCC 2023 Conference after submitting the abstract. No accepted poster will be displayed without pre-registering for the conference
• Pre-registration does not guarantee the acceptance of the poster. NO REFUND will be allowed if your poster was not accepted.

E-Poster Submission Guidelines

• You must send your digital poster file to the organiser by 28th April.
• The abstract submitted of 300 words summarises the components of the poster below.
• A poster is a visual presentation comprising whatever the contributor wishes to display on the poster board. A display uses text, graphs, tables, charts, and pictures to present the highlights of a subject.
• As always in a scientific presentation, the e-poster should include:
  • Statement of the problem
  • Significance of the problem
  • Description of the research method
  • Presentation of results or expected results
  • Summary of the work and conclusions

A E-Poster is very different from a paper or a talk, and so, different techniques need to be used in its preparation.

• Posters should be designed to: Catch the viewer's attention, quickly acquaint the viewer with the basics of your subject, and make the viewer want to learn more.
• An E-poster is a digital version of a poster presentation. The e-poster may include text, figures, charts, tables, images, and artwork but does not include any audio, video, web links, or animation.
• The poster file format / extension should be .JPG and .PDF. Both formats should be submitted.
• As an e-poster presenter, you are asked to prepare a single PDF page/Image, using that will be displayed at IUCC 2023 on a widescreen monitor.
• The e-poster PDF file and JPEG file should be submitted with pixels width 1080px and height 1920px, PORTRAIT layout.
• Font size: The font size should be 20pt or bigger.
• Images and tables:
  • You are welcome to use images and tables in your presentation.
  • Avoid overlapping, animated objects or serial animations.
  • All graphs and tables must be embedded in your file and have titles
  • Avoid animated GIF files and be mindful of copyrights and personal anonymity with your images or photos.
  • Do not insert or embed any videos in your presentation.
  • Use squares, rectangles, circles, etc., to group similar ideas. Avoid cluttering your poster with too much text. Label different elements as I, II, III or 1, 2, 3 or A, B, C, making it easier for the viewers to follow your display.
• Restrictions:
  • Please do not include audio in your presentation.
  • Do not include hyperlinks as there will be no internet access on the e-poster screens.
