Poster and Presentation Guidelines
The IPSO 2026 Congress will be held in-person in Paris, France. If you are participating in the IPSO 2026 Congress program, we ask that you read the below instructions and guidelines for scientific session speakers, oral abstracts and poster presenters.
If you have any questions, please contact us.
Guidelines for Poster Presentations
- We suggest posters no larger than 44in/ 112cm (height) X 42 in/107cm (width) in portrait orientation to ensure comfortable display on the panels at eye level. (see picture on the left for reference)
- Posters must be prepared in advance by the attendee and should be large enough to be viewed from a distance of approximately 3 feet (1 m) or more
- Recommended minimum font sizes: Title ≥72 pt; author names ≥36 pt; section headers ≥32 pt; body text ≥24 pt
- Push pins will be provided for you at the venue to affix your poster to the display panel
- At least one author should be present during the assigned poster sessions
- Each poster must have a top label indicating the title of the paper, the names of the authors and their affiliations and clearly labeled sections. The size of the characters for the title should be at least one inch high (PowerPoint Template example)
- Keep illustrative material simple. Charts, drawings and illustrations may be similar to those used in making slides – preferably with bolder, heavier figures. These materials should be mounted on fairly stiff paper, printing fabric – but NOT heavy cardboard
- You may hand out information sheets to those viewing your poster
- If used, photographs should be in a matte finish, not glossy
- Do not fold posters; roll and carry them in an appropriate container
- Do not mail poster presentations in advance; bring them with you to the Congress
- Prior to arriving on-site at the Congress, all poster presenters will be provided with their poster presentation date and unique poster number. There will be poster panels labelled with your poster number, along with push pins to affix your poster to the board for display. If you have any questions or encounter any issues, please visit the registration desk for assistance.
Invited Speakers & Oral Abstract Presentations
IPSO scientific session speakers and oral abstract speakers will follow the live presentation guidelines for the IPSO 2026 Congress. We kindly ask that you share your presentation slides in advance of the Congress to ensure the meeting runs smoothly. All presentations must be pre-loaded to the meeting laptop in advance of your session.
An email has been sent out with detailed information of each session/presentation. If you are a speaker and have not received an email, please contact .
Please also email with your presentation slides by Friday, May 15, 2026. Presentations may be sent via email, Dropbox, OneDrive or another file transfer portal. If you do not share your presentation in advance of the Congress, you are required to arrive early on the day of your presentation and share your presentation via USB drive with the IPSO meeting staff (though this is strongly discouraged).
