WHY POSTER TOURS?

​

The poster tour is meant for:

​

  • Give attention to the posters and not to leave them behind. This is done by having a known expert working as the "guide" of the tour.

  • The presenting author should be available during the poster tour that includes his/her poster for any questions.

  • Assess the posters using certain criteria of content and outfit in order to select the recipient of the Vilkman’s best poster award.

  • Kindly notice that the tour time is short (20 minutes for all posters in each tour) as this is just meant to have a quick look and ask possible questions.
