* Student Talk (eligible for the Student Awards)


  • Your poster should be in DIN A0 format (max. 841 x 1189 mm, portrait), printed on paper.
  • The poster should have a title, illustrate your research and show the authors and affiliation (presenting author underlined and bold).
  • Poster stripes are provided.
  • There will be two Poster Sessions. You will be assigned to one of the Poster Sections and potentially to a Poster Pitch.
    Check out the website for your poster and poster pitch number!
  • During your poster session section, present your poster to the interested audience.
  • Please put up your poster on Tuesday at 7 pm during the connecting scientist event. Alternatively, you can also put it up independently. The posters will remain in the Mensa throughout the conference.
    They need to be taken down on Friday before 1 pm.
  • The Poster Pitch provides the opportunity to present your research in 60 seconds right before the Poster sessions. Please know, that the slots for the poster pitches are limited. We will announce whether your poster will be accepted shortly before the conference on the Poster pitch page.
