Poster Session Guidelines
Posters will be displayed for the entire meeting, but you will only be required to attend your poster for one session. Posters CANNOT EXCEED 42 inches (107 cm) wide x 60 inches (153 cm) high (updated). However, the size of display panels at this meeting is somewhat variable. Therefore, many presenters prefer to paste figures onto separate boards, rather than bringing a single large poster, to allow the presentation to be reconfigured depending on the exact space available. Please be certain to include your title (in large letters), and make sure that your poster is legible from a distance of at least 4 ft. (122 cm).
Printing/Laminating of Posters: If a you wish to have a poster printed/laminated on site rather than carrying it to the meeting you can contact the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution- Graphic Services Dept. Manager: Jayne Doucette doucette@whoi.edu
or call 508-289-2647 The MBL has a collaboration with WHOI. Your specific print job including payment should be discussed directly with them.
