POSTER PRESENTER REIMBURSEMENT POLICY

Poster Presenters at the Annual Meetings are responsible for all expenses including registration, hotel, and travel. No reimbursement is provided. Presenters must register for the meeting.

Creating Your Paper Poster Presentation

Presenters are asked to create a traditional paper poster for display in the poster hall on the day of their session. Each presenter will be provided a poster board that is 8’ W x 4’ H (2.43 meters by 1.21 meters). Allow room for a 1-inch border.

Your poster should include: 

  • The most successful posters are graphically rich presentations of your research that highlight and summarize the main points, with the poster presenter filling in the details in person at the session. The least effective poster format is an enlarged copy of your manuscript.
  • Place the title of your paper and authors prominently at the top of the poster.
    • Include the authors’ names and contact information in case the viewer is interested in more information.
  • Include the background of your research followed by results and conclusions. A successful poster presentation depends on how well you convey information to an interested audience.

Size, fonts, and color:

  • The maximum poster size is 8’ W x 4’ H (2.43 meters by 1.21 meters). Allow room for a 1-inch border.
  • Prepare diagrams or charts legibly in a size sufficient to be read at a distance of 2 meters.
  • Recommended font sizes:
    • Headers: at least 36-point font (1.2 cm height)
    • Paragraph and figure captions: at least in a 24-point font (0.9 cm height)
    • Body copy: at least 25-point font (1.0 cm height)
  • Choose your colors to provide strong contrast and avoid pairing red and green elements to assist those with red-green color blindness.
  • A serif font (e.g., Times) is often easier for reading main text, and a non-serif font (e.g., Arial or Helvetica) is more legible for headers and figure labels.

Poster Printing

You are responsible for printing your poster and any costs associated. IARS has arranged optional poster printing through FedEx located onsite at the Hyatt Regency Seattle Hotel. All posters must be picked up on your own from the 2nd floor FedEx office of the Hyatt Regency Seattle Hotel; they will not be brought to the meeting space.  Printing requests must be submitted by May 3, 2024. Create your poster and save it to your desktop before submitting through the link below. We recommend using PowerPoint but you can use any other software you wish.

If you are not using this printing service, due to nationwide shipping delays we strongly recommend printing your poster in your home location and carrying it with you when you travel rather than shipping it to the hotel.
