Presentation Guidelines

Panel and colloquy sessions are 90 minutes long. Within each session, approximately 15-20 minutes should be reserved for open discussion. In sessions with five presenters, each presenter is allotted 12 minutes. In sessions with three or four presenters, each presenter is allocated 15 minutes. It is best to plan on 12 minutes regardless of the number of presenters since last minute changes in the panel could affect your allotted time. Reading papers is not acceptable. If a moderator does not arrive, we ask that the first presenter assume this role.

Breakfast Roundtable sessions (BRTs) occur during the breakfast period, which is 60 minutes long. The roundtable leader(s) may start the discussion at any time after the breakfast period begins. Breakfast is held from 7:00am-8:00am. Given the informal nature of BRT sessions, individuals may join or leave the discussion at any time.
