POSTERS
The posters (which consist of a single "slide")
will not be printed. Instead, they will be video-projected in the conference rooms and on dedicated digital screens located in the common areas.
All posters must be in a horizontal format and submitted to the SBI secretariat in both .pdf and .jpg formats by September 3, 2023. Failure to comply with these guidelines or submitting non-compliant materials may result in the inability to present your scientific contribution at the congress.
Since the posters will be used as a support to briefly describe the research, we strongly recommend using a graphical abstract format, consisting of key images and a few bullet points. This will enhance the visual impact of your presentation and improve its effectiveness.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to the SBI Secretariat
sbi@unifi.it).
Authors are requested to complete and submit, via email, the release note to allow disclosure of the material.
