and presented in

the Speaker

recommendations may be helpful:
“Methods” and “Results” are the most important sections.
Avoid lengthy general information. A single introductory sentence is sufficient. You may start directly with the Objective.
Objective: Clearly state the aim of the study.
Methods: Briefly describe where, when, on whom, and how the study was conducted—avoid unnecessary details.
Results: Present the main findings first. Details can be shown on tables/figures.
Conclusion:
Express in one–two sentences.
• Prepare the presentation as a
PowerPoint
file.
• Allow approximately
30 seconds
per slide, with a total of around
10 slides.
• The first slide must include the title of the
study, authors' names, and their institutions.
• Text on slides should be clearly readable by the
audience.
• Please rehearse your presentation before attending
the congress to ensure good time management and
reduce performance anxiety.

Room at least one day before their scheduled
