When creating your presentation, please keep in mind the following:

  • Create slides in 16:9 format. You may use any file type, such as Keynote, PowerPoint, or PDF, however, please note the file copy provided to ISSCR must be in PowerPoint.
  • Include your title slide as slide 1, include a listing of any disclosures as slide 2.
  • You will be sharing your screen and advancing your own slides. Slide animations and videos may be employed, and you may use your cursor as a pointer.
  • Practice your presentation to ensure you adhere to the assigned talk length and have a smooth presentation. 
    • Your Presentation Date and Time has been shared by email. Contact your session liaison or Liz Weislogel (lweislogel@isscr.org) with any questions.

Meeting Platform

  • Logging In

    The 2021 Annual Meeting platform, hosted by Juno, will open on Thursday, 10 June. You must be registered for ISSCR 2021 Virtual to access the platform and your session. Complete your registration here. To login to the meeting platform, please use your ISSCR credentials that you used to register and/or renew your membership.

  • Technical Check

    To check your internet connection, please click on this link. It is best to test your internet connection on the SAME computer, camera, and microphone you plan to use on your presentation day.  

  • Speaker/Presenter Training

    ISSCR will schedule speaker training sessions. It is highly recommended to attend these sessions. Invitations will be sent early to mid-May. If you cannot attend the training live, you will be able to watch a recording on your own time. 

Download the Presenter's Information guide and watch a recording of a training for more help. If you have technical issues after reviewing the training materials, contact Liz Weislogel  lweislogel@Isscr.org 

  • Profile and Speaker Directory

    The meeting platform will include a Speaker Directory available to all meeting attendees. If you have not already done so , please upload a brief biography (100-150 words) and your headshot picture (jpg format preferred) for the Speaker Directory by 9 May using this link.

    We encourage you to complete your attendee profile once you log onto the event platform. This profile is NOT the same as your listing in the Speaker Directory.

     

  • Abide by the ISSCR Meeting Embargo Policy

    Abstracts selected for poster or oral presentation are embargoed from the time of submission until the time of presentation. Abstract content may not be announced, publicized, or distributed before the presentation date and time in any way including blogging and tweeting. ISSCR does permit promotion of general topics, speakers, or presentation times.
    This embargo policy applies to all formats of abstract publication—including abstracts in electronic or print version of Annual Meeting Program Book and Poster Abstract Book, online via the Program Planner and Poster Abstract pdf, Society’s website(s), and other presentations.

 

Presentation Day

  • Log onto the meeting platform at the time communicated to you by your ISSCR session liaison (45 minutes in advance of the beginning of your session).
  • Make sure you are in a quiet setting and have a dedicated computer.
  • Use Google Chrome to access the meeting platform.
  • Use the same computer, camera, and microphone and/or headset you used during your technical check.
  • Use a hardwired Internet connection, if possible.
  • Close all internet data-consuming applications such as e-mail, Slack, or any web pages actively consuming network bandwidth. If you are using a shared home internet connection, please limit others from heavy bandwidth usage such as Netflix, YouTube, or any large downloads.
  • Make sure any other programs using your microphone or camera are closed and any notifications are silenced.

During Your Presentations

You will present while sharing your screen. You will be able to use your cursor as your pointer.

After your presentation, you may have additional time to answer questions moderated by the session chair.
