• If you need additional audiovisual equipment (e.g., a 35-mm slide projector or VCR), it is essential to discuss your request with one of your symposium organizers. Requests for any special equipment must be received at MRS Headquarters from the symposium organizer no later than November 11.

The following information may assist you in preparing an informative and professional poster display:

• Print TITLE and authors in extra large characters (over 1.25 in. high) across the top of your display.

• Display your material in large print so it may be read from a distance. It is important to use text and graphics larger and bolder than those of your manuscript! Be clear and succinct.

• Each board will be 8’ wide x 4’ high.Usable space is 91” x 45.” Boards will accept pushpins or Velcro. A (finite) supply of pushpins will be available.

• Each presentation will be assigned a board and will be labeled with the number of the paper (e.g., M5.18) and the presenting author's name. A small table will be under each board.

• Light refreshments will be provided from 8:00 – 9:30 p.m. during evening sessions.
