Poster Presenters
Poster boards at NELS56 will be 4ft by 4ft, so your poster should be designed to fit within those dimensions. We strongly advise all poster presenters to print their posters prior to arriving in NYC. The cost of printing posters is around $85 near NYU. Poster presenters should bring their posters to Hemmerdinger Hall in the morning of the day that their poster is scheduled for presentations, in order to set things up in advance.
If you would like to share your poster file on the conference website, please upload it to
our Google Drive folder. We will link posters from the site closer to the conference date.
Please name your uploaded file using the following convention:
firstauthorname_firstthreewordsofpresentationtitle.pdf
For example, if your presentation is titled “Raised Heads and Topics” and the first author is Major, you would name your file: major_raisedheadsand.pdf.
Talk Presenters
If you intend to use slides during your talk, please upload your slides in advance to the
same Drive folder.
Use the same naming convention as above for your slide files (e.g., major_raisedheadsand.pdf).
We will project your slides from the in-room machines. However, you are also welcome to project from your own device if you prefer — the rooms will be equipped with standard connectors for all regular laptops.
Handouts
If you plan to distribute handouts, we will provide an estimate of the expected number of attendees at the beginning of the conference week. We anticipate that no more than 100 handouts will be needed.
Please note: we cannot print handouts onsite. However, there are several nearby options for printing:
- NYU Copy Center – 547 LaGuardia Pl (a few minutes’ walk south of Washington Square Park)
- FedEx Office – Located on 8th St at the top of Mercer St
