Important Deadline

General Information  

For the discussant to prepare his/her presentation, all oral presenters must submit their presentation slides no later than June 27, 2022, via the online submission system (provided to you via email). Minor changes to the presentation can be made later and submitted to the Speaker Ready Room onsite.   

Oral presenters and Invited speakers are encouraged to use the ICNMD 2022 presentation slide template. To download, click the button above.

All presentations will need to be submitted in 16:9 format.

Presentation Preparation  

Your presentation must be prepared in PowerPoint2000 or any later PowerPoint Version (MS Windows) and provided on a USB-removable drive if not previously sent to us.   

Set the slide size of the page to “On-screen show” and landscape orientation in the page set-up section. (Portrait orientation will not be displayed properly). 

Use high-contrast lettering, and not too much text per page (max. 10 lines or 15-20 words). Make sure you use high-contrast colors for the best definition of your text. Please be aware that red letters or lines are usually not visible when displayed on a bigger screen. 

As a general rule, you should not present more than 1 slide per minute. Visual material supports the speech and should not be the transcription of it. 

The inclusion of a disclosure slide is mandatory even if you have no conflicts to declare. It is recommended to keep a copy of your presentation at the time of the presentation, should a problem occur. Furthermore, please have the presentation printed on paper, for reference during the lecture. 

Special characters: To avoid any compatibility problems, please do not use special characters (i.e. “, Ö, Ø, ñ, ?, ®, ý, }, { etc) to name your presentation or movie files. 

Onsite Information  

You are requested to check in your presentation (on your USB-removable drive) at the Speaker Ready Room the day prior to your scheduled presentation, even if you have already submitted your slides. If your presentation falls on the first day of the congress - please check in at the speaker-ready room at least 1 hour before your talk. If for any reason you are unable to meet this schedule, please inform us.  

Computers are available for you in the Speakers Ready Rooms for your final check.  

Once the presentation has been checked, the technical staff will be responsible for its delivery to the session rooms in preparation for your presentation.  

Macintosh presentations (i.e. Keynote) cannot be accommodated unless saved to a PC-formatted USB stick. 

To avoid font compatibility problems, use common fonts (Geneva, Times Roman, Helvetica). If you do not use the recommended fonts you should save the fonts with the presentation.
