Abstract Submission
Abstracts are optional (but desirable) for all CEDAR invited plenary
talks, and they are due by June 1.
Abstracts are required by May 14
for all posters.
Abstracts are NOT needed for talks in individual CEDAR Workshops,
but can be submitted and will be available.
Abstracts should be submitted on the
web, usually as a post-submittal editing process.
You can submit up to two abstracts in the registration process
(e.g. two afternoon workshop abstracts, two poster abstracts, one of
each, a plenary and a poster abstract, etc.) If you need to submit
a third abstract, contact sbaltuch@ucar.edu.
All abstracts will be posted on the web in alphabetical order
as they are submitted, but poster authors will be informed of
the order, poster session, and acceptance of their posters in early June.
Plenary abstracts will also be accessible on the
agenda, and
workshop abstracts via various workshop descriptions.
General Information on Posters
There are 2 poster sessions during the 2007 CEDAR-DASI Meeting:
- CEDAR non-MLT Poster session Monday 25 June 4-7 PM in the Eldorado Pavilion
- CEDAR MLT Poster session Tuesday 26 June 4-7 PM in the Eldorado Pavilion
Each presenter is required to be available to discuss the poster
for at least one hour during the assigned poster session.
Each poster will have 1.2 m x 1.2 m (4 x 4 ft) of space.
Push pins will be provided.
The title should be legible from at least 4 m distance, and
the rest of the poster, including informative figures and diagrams,
should be legible from 2 meters distance.
It should include a short summary of objectives, methodology, and
results, and a list of conclusions.
Tips on what makes a good poster
are listed at the end of this page after information on the CEDAR
student poster competition.
Abstract books will be
available for all sessions, and abstracts should be submitted on-line
through the
registration site by Monday May 14 for the poster sessions.
The poster boards will arrive in the Eldorado Pavilion on Sunday evening,
and will be labelled with the poster number (ie, POL.01) by Monday morning.
All
CEDAR student competition posters
should be up between 10 AM Monday and 9 PM Tuesday (ie, 2 hours after the end
of the formal poster session)
to allow judges the maximum amount
of time to look at their posters, since the first round of judging is
on the poster itself. The second round of judging is on the
oral presentation during the assigned poster session.
Everyone should be at their poster at least 1 hour during
their 3-hour poster session, with the hour marked on their
designated space when the poster is put up.
All posters can be up starting Monday morning. Any posters
still on poster boards at 915 PM on Tuesday evening will be
removed and
put on tables in the hallway of the Eldorado for pickup.
Student Poster Competition
Undergraduate and graduate CEDAR students who are the first authors
of poster presentations may choose to participate in the student poster
competition, but this is not required. To do so, check the
appropriate boxes on the abstract submission form in the
on-line registration.
Student posters will be judged on:
- Scientific content and effective poster organization (from
poster only)
- Scientific content and effective oral
presentation (by student presenter)
- Ownership of the poster by the student presenter (be able to show it
is substantially their work and not the work of their advisor)
Further information about requirements and judging criteria
is provided on the
Student Poster Competition Web page.
Tips on What Makes a Good Poster
- State objectives clearly at the start
- An abstract is not an introduction
- Assume viewers know nothing (or are not specialists)
- Don't crowd the space with too many results (font size!)
- State conclusions for each figure nearby, not only at the end of the poster
- Emphasize (and state) scientific significance and originality of your work
- Extract essence of the work for the viewer, both orally and visually
