Poster Session

At GEAR 2021, poster presentations will occur in parallel breakout rooms on Saturday, February 20th between 15:45-17:00 (MST). Each presenter will prepare a poster in PDF format. Similar to a regular 'physical' conference, presenters can expect attendees to enter and leave virtual rooms, given the parallel nature of the session. The presentation descriptions and meeting links will be included in the Conference Program. The details for the posters and the virtual rooms are as follows:

Timeline: The organizers as the poster presenters send final drafts of their posters by Friday February 12th.

Preparing your poster in PDF format: while there are no particular formatting requirements, we advise you to keep in mind that attendees will be looking at the posters on a screen. You may find the following resources helpful:
