Accepted abstracts can be presented in one of the following presentation types. Please note that all abstract presenters must register to attend IDWeek. Every accepted abstract must be presented by a registered attendee at IDWeek.
Oral Presentations
The presenting author is expected to discuss his or her scientific research and summarize the data into a comprehensive 10-minute presentation. Presenting authors are required to use PowerPoint slides to accompany their oral presentations. Oral abstract presenters are required to attend IDWeek in-person.
Poster Presentations
Poster sessions are abstracts that have been selected and grouped together by category/topics. Poster presentations give authors an opportunity to acquaint attendees and experts in the field with the fundamentals of their abstracts and research. All poster presenters will upload a virtual poster (PDF version) and record a 5-minute audio description for virtual attendees.
- In-Person Poster Presentations (Recommended)
In-person poster presenters will set up their posters in the poster hall and will be assigned a date and time to present.
- Virtual Poster Presentations
Virtual poster presenters will upload a virtual poster (PDF version) and record a 5-minute audio description for their presentation. Virtual presenters will not need to be online at their presentation date and time.
Rapid-Fire Poster Presentations
Rapid-Fire poster sessions will feature six 5-minute poster presentations from selected presenters and will be presented in the Rapid-Fire arenas in the Poster Hall during lunch. Rapid-Fire poster presenters are required to attend IDWeek in-person.
