August & September | Preparation Calls | Preparation calls will be held in August with all the speakers in your session. You will have an email from Josh or Zahid with the date of your call. This is to introduce you to moderator and the other speakers, help you focus your presentation and identify any questions and common themes. |
Please bring an abstract for your talk or approximately 3 slides on what you plan to cover in your presentation to the preparation call. | ||
23rd September | Submit your slides | Via email at jlally@openpharmaresearch.com or upload them with the blue button bellow (using your name as the file name). |
29th September | Pistoia Alliance Welcome Drinks | The Pistoia Alliance will be hosting an informal welcome drinks at the Beurs Van Berlage at 5.30pm on Monday 29th September. This is a chance to catch up with friends and ask the team any questions you may have about your session ahead of the conference. |
Your presentation should be no longer than 15 minutes; this time does not include questions. Each presentation will sit within a module featuring 2 or 3 speakers. Questions to all speakers in the session will be answered in a 15-20 minute panel discussion at the end of the presentations.
You will be able to see the timing of your session on the Agenda Tab of the event website. Please be aware that timings might still move slightly as we finalise each talk.
Your slides: If you are using slides, we would like a copy by 23rd September. We will make slides available to delegates after the Congress unless you ask us not to. A 16:9 ratio will keep all presentations consistent. PowerPoint and PDF formats are preferred for your slides. If you would like to add the event logo to your slides, you can download it here.
Guidance on fonts and text size:
While presenting you will be able to see your slides on the “comfort monitor” at the front of the stage. A clicker and pointer will be provided.
