Congratulations to those abstracts accepted as posters! We know this is an exciting time and that you may have questions.  Please read the FAQ’s below: 

Where Can I Access My Poster Number?

Look for the email sent to you when you accepted your poster.  If you still can’t find it, please email [email protected].

When Can I Hang My Poster/When Does it Have to Come Down? 

ODD Numbered Posters (i.e., P-01, P-23, P-107) should be hung on the assigned board between 2:00 pm – 5:00 pm on Thursday, June 13 and removed by 1:30 pm on Friday, June 14. Posters left after 3:00 pm may be discarded.

When Should I be at my Poster for the Q&A Session? 

Poster presenters with an ODD poster number should be available at their poster between 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm on Thursday, June 13 (during the Opening Reception). Poster presenters with an EVEN poster number should be available between 5:00 pm – 6:15 pm on Friday, June 14 (during the Happy Hour).

Please note these times are scheduled during the receptions for maximum attendee participation. You are not required to stand with your poster, but it is a great opportunity to interact with attendees and answer their questions.

How Do I Accept My Invitation to Present a Poster? 

Yes, please follow the steps in the email you (the submitter) received. This way we know how many poster boards to have in the room. If you are unsure if your poster has been accepted, please email: [email protected]

Are Presenting Authors Required to Register for the Meeting? 

Somone (author or other representative) must register if you plan to present/defend your poster at the meeting. All abstract submitters will receive instructions with acceptance notices and information on meeting registration.

What if I Can’t Be There in Person? 

We understand that not everybody can join us in San Diego. So, if you choose the Virtual Attendance Experience, you can still have one of your colleagues hang your physical poster. However, you will not be able to answer live questions from the attendees. 

Is There a Discount for Poster Authors? 

Presenting authors can take advantage of an extended early bird rate until April 14. When entering the Poster Collection Portal, look for the “Registration” task. 

How Do I Book My Hotel Room? 

After you register, you will receive a link to book a hotel room in your registration confirmation email. The hotel cut-off is May 22 at 5 pm PT or until the block sells out, whichever comes first. 

How Can I Print and Ship My Poster?
