Poster session
Poster session would be held in the afternoon in first day of the meeting (Sep. 2nd). Introduction of posters would be held at 13:00 in the main hall. Each presenter can introduce their poster for 2 minutes by using slides. After the introduction of posters, presenters move to the poster rooms and explain the poster. Time for the poster session are 16:00-17:25 for odd numbers of posters and 17:30-18:55 for even numbers of posters, respectively. All presenters can also explain their posters at 9:00-9:50 in second day of the meeting (Sep. 3rd). Presenters can be limited as members of JSCPB.
