Guideline for speakers

All presenters at EAPM 2014 must read the following instructions:

Uploading of presentation in speakers area start from Wednesday, June 25, at 08:00.

The supported software for presentation is PowerPoint, Keynote is not allowed. All presentation will be presented at a resolution of 1024 by 728 pixels. When using videos, MPG and AVI are the most used video formats. Movie created in (Apple) QuickTime: convert them to MPG or AVI before inserting the video in your presentation. Save the videos used in your presentation on your CD/USB memory stick.

Include your conflict interest statement in the first slide.

Oral presentation in the free paper sessions are limited to 10-12 minutes, followed by 2-5 minutes of discussion. The session chairman will strictly enforce this schedule.

In the speakers area, a technician helps the speaker to transfer his order presentation into the congress network. When the transfer is complete, the technician performs a quick run of the presentation so the speaker can check whether the presentation runs correctly and all parts of the presentation are copied. Desktop computers will be available at the speaker room for last minute changes and reviewing your presentation, if needed.

Inside the presentation room, a technical assistant starts each presentation at the right time using a fixed computer connected to the congress network. When the presentation is launched, the speaker has control and can navigate with a remote device.

We do not allow the use of personal laptop for presentations. If you bring your laptop to the congress, the technician will copy the files on your hard disk of the laptop into the central congress network, so the laptop will no longer be needed. Of course, the easiest way is to bring your presentation on CD, DVD or memory stick.


At the end of the congress, all presentation will be deleted so that no copyright issues will arise.
