Presentations will be numbered and poster boards labeled accordingly. Posters will be on display throughout the day. The posters will primarily viewed during coffee breaks, during the lunch break, and during the evening reception. Students are expected to be present during these viewing times to answer questions. Sigma Xi will not assume any responsibility for damage or loss of their laptops, and presenters should not leave laptops or other valuables unattended in the session area.
Presenters are responsible for bringing their own supplies, including push pins.
In general, authors should prepare presentations that can easily be read from a distance of 10 feet. The title should be attached across the top of the poster and should be in a large font. Professional presentations typically report research that provides a substantial test of one or more hypotheses. In this symposium, you may present a poster of research that did not work out as expected or that is underway, as recommended by your advisor or department head. The abstract still should present as much of the story as possible.
