PREPARING YOUR POSTER
1. Material used for the Poster
ISC 2023 prefers posters to be large single sheet of paper or flex material that can be rolled and carried in a tube. However, if you do not have facilities for making a single sheet, then making your poster using several sheets of normal A4 or any stationary is acceptable.
2. Orientation and Size
The orientation of the poster is vertical (Portrait mode). The maximum size of your poster should be A0 format or 84.cm wide x 118 cm tall . Do not exceed these size limits.
3. Track Name
The name of the Track of to which your proposal was submitted should be at the top of your poster. The Track name should be in letters at least 1 inch high. The Track name should be in black letters on white background
4. Poster Title
Place this under the Track Name. It should be the same as the title of your proposal. It should be in black letters on a yellow background band to distinguish it from the Track title.
5. Author Names & Affiliations
The names and institutions of the authors should be displayed below the Poster Title in a small font.
6. General Poster Design Tips
Other than the above Requirements for Track name, Poster Title, and Author Names & Affiliations, ISC 2023 does not impose any restrictions on the formatting of your poster. We encourage you to be creative. However do keep in mind that:
- Your poster should be legible from a distance of 3 feet.
- Use bullet points.
- Avoid rows of closely spaced text. You should prefer to explain details verbally rather than expect visitors to read small text on the poster boards.
- Colours should be used wherever possible to establish differences.
- Charts and diagrams are very useful.
7. Printing
Please print your poster in advance and bring it to the conference with you. The conference does not have a printing facility.
DISPLAYING YOUR POSTER
1. Poster Boards
ISC will provide poster boards. These will be soft boards with a cloth surface. Use board pins to pin your poster to the board.
2. Poster Board number
Each poster board will have a number at the top of the frame. Your poster board number will be conveyed to you shortly before the conference. Pin your poster on the board with your number. Posters of the same Track will be placed next to each other, so your neighbour will be a colleague with the same interests.
3. Mounting and Removing your Poster
You are expected to put up and take down your poster yourself. Please bring your board pins with you to save time.
Your poster will be displayed for a full day. There will be two sets of poster displays one on 16 December and the other on 17 December. You will be notified closer to the conference about the date of your poster display.
Please mount your poster in the morning of your date of poster display and remove it in the evening. The conference will not be responsible for posters left overnight.
4. Poster Sessions – Physical Presence Required
The Poster Sessions will be held on the Ground Floor of the N-Cluster block. There will be two sessions per day, held during the tea breaks.
