Contributed abstract (oral and poster) sorting catetories
The Executive Committee solicits contributed oral and poster presentations on the wide range of topics typically addressed at the GEC. The abstract sorting categories are listed below. You may always contact an Executive Committee member for assistance if you have difficulty choosing the category which best fits your work.
Guidelines for Scientific Presentations
James Callen, University of Wisconsin, has developed some useful materials for preparing effective scientific presentations. The Program Committee urges all attendees to prepare clear and effective presentations. James Callen’s website, entitled “Materials for Preparing Effective Scientific Talks, Posters” is available online as pdf documents at http://homepages.cae.wisc.edu/~callen/talks.html.
