Posters and lightning lectures

The main form of presentation of scientific results at the workshop will be by poster. All attendees are encouraged to bring a poster that outlines work in progress.

Recommended size is A0 portrait but if you already have a smaller poster ready and relevant to your current work then bring that along. Please note that landscape poster will not fit the poster boards!

Poster presenters will also have an opportunity to spruik their work prior to the poster session via a 60 second lightning lecture; the more creative the better. Song, dance, poetry, costumes, props are all encouraged!

Visit https://home.climateextremes.org.au/clex-powerpoint-templates/ for poster and Power Point templates.

Please note that Lightning Lecture slides need to be submitted by Friday 18th October.
