Main Conference
There is a designated poster author session programmed for Wednesday from 10:45 – 11:45am during the morning tea break in the Dräger Knowledge Lounge located near the AFAC and Bushfire & Natural Hazards CRC stand. Posters will be displayed on your behalf on Tuesday afternoon and we ask that you remove your own poster by the end of lunch on Thursday. The poster numbers are listed later in this handbook and correspond with the appropriate number on the display panels.
E-Poster Terminals
As well as posters being displayed in the exhibition area, there will also be two E-Poster terminals for viewing the displayed posters in electronic format. The electronic posters may have links to supporting and extra information. Both terminals will be located near the AFAC and Bushfire & Natural Hazards CRC stand.

This is located in room L1B on the ground floor to the left of the conference registration desk on the way to the Exhibition Hall foyer. Presenters are asked to load all slides at least a full session in advance of your session. A technician will be on hand to assist with any transfer/loading issues and to help you check your presentation.
