Abstracts
Ensure that you read the abstracts in the Annual Meeting App prior to the session.
Suggestions for Running an Effective Poster Rounds Session:
Arrive to the poster session (Salon B - LL) by 12:15pm and check-in at the poster moderator check-in table.
Pick up your clipboards, pens, and your scoring sheet at the check-in table.
Proceed to your assigned poster area. Introduce yourself to the co-moderator.
The usual presentation order is to go from one end to the other, however, do what is convenient for you and your group.
Keep the presentations on time.
There will be up to 10 posters assigned for you to score.
Each presentation is 2-5 minutes with the opportunity for you to ask 1-2 questions.
Please remind those in your area to limit side discussions so that everyone can hear the presentations.
After all posters have been presented, ask the presenters to wait a few minutes while you determine the best in category. Remind all presenters to leave their poster in place until the blue ribbon has been awarded.
Present the ribbon to best in category.
Best in category posters are left on the board (ABA staff will move them to another space for the Best in Category session.)
All other posters should be removed by the presenters.
Tell ABA Staff which poster is best in category. Leave rating sheets with ABA staff at table.
ABA staff will create a PowerPoint for Best in Category session.
