DISCLOSURE OF CONFLICT OF INTEREST
The Congress Programme Committee requests speakers and chairpersons to disclose potential conflict of interest regarding the topics of the presentations during the introduction of the session for chairpersons or on the first slide of the presentation for speakers. This will allow the audience to take potential conflicts of interest into account when assessing the objectivity of the presentation. A potential conflict of interest may arise from various relationships, past or present, such as employment, consultancy, investments and stock ownership, funding for research, family relationship, etc.
All speakers giving a presentation in scientific sessions are requested to upload and validate their presentation in the Speakers’ Service Centre (SSC) at least 3 hours prior to the scheduled presentation time.
We recommend to all speakers to upload presentations in advance.
A personalised upload link and instructions will be sent by email to all speakers at the opening of the online services late November.
All PCs in the SSC and the lecture rooms will run Windows XP and Office 2003
If you have technical questions regarding your presentation before the congress, you may contact our audiovisual department by clicking here.
For general scientific questions, please contact us
RESTRICTION: Personal laptop computers cannot be connected to the projectors in lecture rooms & presentation cannot be loaded directly onto the computer in the lecture rooms.
To the attention of MAC users!
If your presentation is on a Mac computer, we kindly urge you to meet with a dedicated Mac technician in the SSC to either make sure that your presentation will run properly on the PC’s or to anticipate a backup solution.
