Planning an oral session

Session planning by session chair

Unlike a poster session, all contributions in an oral session are scheduled with a time duration (start and end time).

You can schedule abstracts, lectures or events within the session timetable.

Define the presentation duration

  1. You can set a default duration in minutes for all scheduled posts.
    You can then set the presentation duration for each individual post down to the minute.

  1. Abstracts and lectures or events are drag and dropped into the timetable. They are automatically inserted with the specified presentation duration.
