Poster & judging

We have 8 poster sessions on Thursday 12th Sep and Friday 13th Sep. Posters will be available for viewing each day in Hall 1130/1131. The main poster viewing session each day will take place at 13:00 – 14:00 when presenters are asked to stand next to their posters.

Members of the Scientific Committee will be visiting all posters during the Congress, with a prize awarded to best poster from an ECR delegate on Thursday and Friday. The prize winners will be announced at our Closing Ceremony on 14 September and will present a 5-minute ECR keynote.

Delegates may join one of the poster tours led by a member of our Scientific Committee each day. If you wish to do so, please meet at the first nominated poster in each poster tour at 13:00. Poster presenters in each tour will give a 1 to 2-minute presentation of their poster followed by time for questions.

About Session IDs & Presentation IDs

Each Session taking place during the Congress has been assigned a unique Session ID which you will find in our timetables, program and online abstract books. 

  • Plenary sessions are numbered PL1-PL7
  • ECR Keynote prizes are numbered ECR1-ECR4
  • Themed Symposia sessions (convened by delegates) are numbered S01-S26
  • Oral Presentation sessions (individual talks, convened into parallel sessions by our Scientific Committee) are numbers OP01-OP23
  • Poster sessions are numbered P1-P8

Within each session, each abstract accepted for presentation has been assigned a unique Presentation ID. The Presentation ID is a two-part ID such as S01.02, OP05.10 or P1.07. The first part (i.e. S01, OP05 or P1) indicates the Session ID, and the second part (i.e. 02, 10, 07) indicates the position / order of presentations within a given Session.
