Poster presenters should refer to the below instructions for preparing, setting up, presenting, and taking down their posters.
Uploading Your Presentation for the Conference
Presenters should save their presentations on a flash drive or make them accessible through email, Google Drive, or another storage service. Laptops in the presentation rooms will remain in the same breakout room throughout the conference, so presenters must be able to access their presentation files from the laptop in their presentation room. Presenters may download their presentation file onto the room computer if time allows.Downloading your presentation on the laptops in conference rooms does not automatically upload your presentation to the STFM Conferences mobile app. You must upload them to the app separately. You will receive an email with instructions on how to upload your presentation to the STFM Conferences app closer to the conference.
