Symposia
A symposium is a group of presentations with a single, coherent theme intended to enable a number of presentations to be grouped together to create an opportunity for a complex subject to be dealt with in an extended presentation session. Consideration should be given to the overall goal of the symposium as much as to the goal of the individual presentations within it. A symposium will usually consist of two or three linked presentations. Consideration should also be given to audience engagement and mechanisms for facilitating question or dialogue with the audience.
Each symposium submission must nominate a Chair for the symposium, describe the aim of the symposium and clearly articulate the interactive element of the symposium. The role of the chair will be to introduce presenters, keep presentations to time and facilitate audience participation. A chair may also be a presenter.
Develop an abstract for each of the individual presentations to be included in the symposium
Please note: that all symposia submissions will be automatically considered for individual oral/poster presentations if they are not selected as a symposium
