Posters sizes

The poster boards are 37.5 inches tall and 48 wide. Of this, approximately 35.5 x 46” is displayable space. Due to the design of the boards they can only be assembled in this orientation. A0 is 33.1 x 46.8 in and so would be slightly oversized for these boards. The most straightforward solution to avoid custom sizing would thus be A1 landscape.


Registration

The registration deadline on 15 November has passed.

Please contact the organisers via email if you would like to participate.
