Presenters' names and affiliations are available on the Schedule webpage.
The following instructions are for those submitting abstracts and for accepted symposium verbal and poster presenters.
Please register and submit an abstract if you would like to present a verbal presentation during the symposium on November 7 or November 8. Additionally, please email your presentation proposal to: charles.w.baun.nfg@army.mil by close of business on October 25, 2024. Include “NCA Symposium - Presentation” in the email subject line, your presentation title, and a one- to two-paragraph abstract.
Final selections for verbal presentations will be made by October 31, 2024, and the tentative presentation dates and times will be sent to presenters then.
Final slide presentations must be emailed to StaceySmith870@boisestate.edu by 3:30 p.m. on November 4, 2024, either in PowerPoint or Google Slides format, to give the Student Union A/V team time to check for issues and load your presentation on the venue computer. If your file size is large, a Google link may be shared in the email. PowerPoint slides are required in 4:3 normal format, although widescreen will work. Embedded video must be saved within your presentation to ensure your video will play properly, not as links to online videos. Please keep in mind that your presentation will be projected and will not be shown on a backlit screen. Thus, high contrast between background and text and the use of clear fonts in large font sizes are highly recommended.
Verbal presentations are 15 minutes plus 5 minutes for questions for a total of 20 minutes. Timekeeping: Presenters will be given silent reminders when 3 minutes and 1 minute remain. A bell will sound at 15 minutes to wrap up the presentation, with a second bell at 1 minute past.
Registered and accepted presenters will be provided with all necessary A/V equipment at the venue: a built-in PC computer with keyboard and mouse, speakers, two screens simultaneously showing the presentation (8' w x 5' h), projector, and choice of wireless handheld microphone or lavalier microphone.
Poster Presenters:
Please register and submit an abstract if you would like to present a poster during the November 7 reception, 4:30 - 6 p.m. Additionally, please email your poster proposal to: charles.w.baun.nfg@army.mil by close of business on October 25, 2024. Include “NCA Symposium - Poster” in the email subject line, your poster title, and a one- to two-paragraph abstract.
Final selections for poster presentations will be made by October 31, 2024. Final posters must be emailed to StaceySmith870@boisestate.edu by 3:30 p.m. on November 4, 2024. Posters should be 36" x 48" oriented either in landscape or portrait format.
Registered and accepted poster presenters will be provided with backer board, attachment clips, easels, and space to present at the venue. Presenters must arrive with their posters by 4 p.m. on Nov. 7 and check in at the registration desk to have time to prepare their posters for presentation. The poster session will take place in the Student Union Jordan Ballroom from 4:30 to 6 p.m. on Nov. 7. Please remove your poster by the end of the symposium on Nov. 8, as any remaining posters at that time will be recycled.
