Submitting a Poster

To submit a poster at the AUM, please register for the AUM and then create a Submission using the same email address used at registration.

Note that submissions can be edited following the deadline. Poster files can be added to submissions closer to the AUM. Poster presenters will be asked to submit:

a PDF poster file no larger than 76.2cm x 101.6cm (30" x 40")
a 2-3 minute video presentation of your poster (optional)

To ensure that presenters can focus on their presentations, CLS staff will handle the printing of all posters using uploaded files. Note that posters exceeding the size parameters will be scaled down. If presenters attend the in-person events in Waterloo on October 22, they may take their printed posters with them when they leave.
