Oral presentations will take place Saturday morning from 9:15-11:45 in two locations concurrent. Oral presentations must be uploaded to the DBU computer at the registration table by 11:00pm on Friday (the night before talks). Oral Presenters should bring presentations on an USB. Oral presentations must not exceed 15 minutes in length, including time for questions; therefore, you are encouraged to keep your presentation to 10-12 minutes, leaving 3-5 minutes for questions (recall there is a judging criterion for quality of answers to questions). Presentation moderators will not allow you to go beyond 15 minutes. Poster sessions will take place Saturday afternoon. Posters setup is from Friday 11:00pm to Saturday 12:30pm. Judging will begin at 1:00pm. Easels and poster boards are available at DBU Hospitality House for Poster Presenters. Posters must be removed by Saturday evening. Click here for the Judging and Awards Criteria for Oral and Poster Presentations. Accommodations The price of registration covers accommodations and all students will stay in the cabins at Mt.
